AB - INTRODUCTIONGenerally, extremely low‐frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF‐EMF) have frequencies from 3 to 300 Hz. Frequencies of 60 Hz and 50 Hz are used for household alternating current (AC) electrical power in a large part of the world. Recently, by expanding use of electronic devices in the home and workplace, exposure of ELF‐EMF has been increasing steadily. Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are essential to medical diagnostic apparatus such as magnetic resonance imaging and wireless communication, for example, mobile phones, radio, and television, and can be generated whenever electricity is produced, transported, or used.Owing to the growing ubiquity of EMFs, many studies have been undertaken to better understand the effects of EMFs on the human body, including changes in gene expression, regulation of cell fates, and cell differentiation [Baek et al., ; Ma et al., ; Lee et al., ]. It has been reported that in human neuroblastoma and rat pituitary cells, ELF‐EMF exposure increases proliferation and inhibits programmed cell death [Grassi et al., ]. It has also been discovered that metastasis of breast tumors is increased under the influence of EMFs [Girgert et al., ].The immune system that perceives non‐self molecules and eliminates invaders [Johansson, ] responds sensitively to stress and other stimuli. Furthermore, it
