Abstract:
A preliminary experimental research on the proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with exposure to 50 Hz magnetic fields is done. The experimental results can be well repeated, showing that 50 Hz magnetic fields can evidently affect the proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), besides, the results are not linear with the amplitude of magnetic fields, but existing therein a 'window' phenomenon. At the end of this paper, the domestic and overseas development of the research is discussed on with the emphasis how to cure the bone fracture with the help of magnetic fields, and our investigative thoughts are also presented.
