Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of electromagnetic irradiation on activation of protein kinase C(PKC)and phosphorylation of glutamate receptor 2(GluR2)in rat cerebellum.Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were divided randomly into a control group and an electromagnetic exposure group(including 5 subgroups ob- served at different time points after the irradiation,eg.0 hour,3 hours,12 hours,24 hours and 72 hours after irradi- ation),with 10 rats in each group.All the rats in the exposure group were exposed to 90 mW/cm2 electromagnetic ir- radiation for 20 minutes,their rectal temperature was detected immediately after irradiation and the specific absorption rate(SAR)value was calculated,activation of PKC was detected with improved TaKai method,the level of cerebellar GluR2 expression and phosphorylation(ser880)was detected by using Western blot.Results Immediately(0 hour)after exposure,the rectal temperature of rats increased 2.99℃,SAR value was 8.66 W/kg.When compared to the control group,it was found that there was no significant difference between the exposure group and the control group with regard to all the parameters at 3,12,24 and 72 hours after exposure,except that the cerebellar PKC acti- vation and GluR2(ser 880)phosphorylation decreased significantly immediately after irradiation.Conclusion The electromagnetic irradiation has injurious effects on cerebellar signal pathway of for motor learning.
