dc.description.abstractObjective: There is current news that emerges regarding the relationship between the magnetic effects of cell phones and some types of cancer. In spite of the studies carried out, the level of evidence of this news is low, and also the relationship between the magnetic effects of cell phones and other types of cancer is not certain except for brain cancer. In this study, it is aimed to examinethe effects of magnetic field of cell phones on the samples of breast cancer human myeloid leukemia cell growth. Methods: In the study, breast cancer MCF-7 and leukemia K562 cell lines were used as the source of cancer cells. During the six-day cell culture, cancer cells were subjected to the effects of cell phone by using a telephone call program (Automated outbound call software). The system made 6 calls for 1 minute for each call once in 144 minutes from a fixed line. The number of cultured cells and proliferation capacities of the two types of tumor cells in the control and experimental groups were assessed. Results: The number of cancer cells, which were subjected to the effects of cell phone as a result of the culture of tumor cells, was found lower when compared with control group (7500000 ± 100000 vs 6625000 ± 225000 for MCF-7; 15412500 ± 112500 vs 13700000 ± 250000 for K562; P < 0.05 for both). In MTT test, it was found out that two types of cell proliferation were inclined to slow down with the effect of cell phone. Conclusion: The results can be translated that cell phone may inhibit neoplastic transformation, and this observation may promote to initiate new clinical studies both for healthy people and for patients with cancer.
