An amplification mechanism for weak ELF magnetic fields quantum-bio effects in cancer cells.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Observing quantum mechanical characteristics in biological processes is a surprising and important discovery. One example, which is gaining more experimental evidence and practical applications, is the effect of weak magnetic fields with extremely low frequencies on cells, especially cancerous ones. In this study, we use a mathematical model of ROS dynamics in cancer cells to show how ROS oscillatory patterns can act as a resonator to amplify the small effects of the magnetic fields on the radical pair dynamics in mitochondrial Complex III. We suggest such a resonator can act in two modes for distinct states in cancer cells: (1) cells at the edge of mitochondrial oscillation and (2) cells with local oscillatory patches. When exposed to magnetic fields, the first group exhibits high-amplitu
