Abstract

The role of the p38 MAPK signaling cascade was studied in stress response of RAW 264.7 macrophages to extremely low-intensity centimeter microwaves. Irradiation stimulated production of a number of cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, INF-γ and IL-10), as well as induced activation of the signaling cascades NF- κB and p38 MAPK, and enhanced expression of Hsp72 heat shock protein. In the presence of the cascade p38 MAPK inhibitor (p38 MAP kinase inhibitor XI), the stimulating effects of electromagnetic waves were abrogated either completely (for NF-κB and Hsp72) or partially (for p38 MAPK and cytokines). The results obtained are indicative of a high sensitivity of the signaling cascade p38 MAPK to the effect of low-intensity physical fields.
