Abstract

Background & aim: The wide-spread use of CELL PHONEs is the most significant risk factor of human health in the age of technology. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of CELL PHONE radiation with a freguency of 940 MHz on serum level of CORTISOL and changes in ANXIETY level in male RATs.Methods: In the present laboratory-experimental study, 28 male Wistar RATs with the average weight 190±10 gr were divided into control (group that did not receive treatment) and experimental group 1 (group exposure to CELL PHONE radiation for 1 h/day), experimental group 2 (group exposure to CELL PHONE radiation for 3 h/day) and experimental group 3 (group exposed to CELL PHONE radiation for 6 h/day), After 8 weeks, ELEVATED PLUS MAZE was used for ANXIETY evaluation. This means that the percentage of elapsed time and number of entry into the open arm were calculated. Blood samples were also obtained using cardiac puncture method and after serum preparation, levels of CORTISOL were measured using the ELFA method. The data were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA test (one-way analysis of variance between groups) and SPSS software version 19.Results: The results indicated that the serum level of CORTISOL significantly increased in RATs of experimental group 3 (the CELL PHONE radiation for 6 h/day) compared to control animals (P<0.05). No significant difference was obsereved comparing the experimental groups 1 and 2 with the control group. Furthermore, the results of the ELEVATED PLUS MAZE test showed that the percentage of time spent in open arms significantly decreased in all experimental groups compared to the control RATs (P<0.001). There was also significant decrease in the percentage of entries into open arms in all experimental groups compared to the control group (P<0.001). The reduction in elapsed time and number of entry into the open arm was indicative of increased ANXIETY in all experimental groups 1, 2 and 3 as compared to the control group.Conclusion: The findings of this study showed that the exposure to CELL PHONE radiation as a major environmental stressor resulted in enhanced ANXIETY level accompanied by increased serum level of CORTISOL. Accordingly, the controls on the face of the stimulus and its negative effects seem to be necessary.
