Influence of Static Magnetic Field Orientation on HT22 Neural Cell Behavior

POSTER

Abstract

Magnetotherapy has the capacity to become a valuable tool in the biomedical field due to its minimally invasive therapeutic potential. Nevertheless, there are numerous unresolved questions surrounding the effects of static magnetic fields on neural structure and growth. In our study, we investigate the effects of manipulating the orientation of a 1mT static magnetic field on HT22 neural cells. Our research endeavors to evaluate the influence of factors such as the duration and orientation of the magnetic field on proliferation, viability, and structure of the cells. By delving into these interactions, we strive to provide insights that contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of magnetotherapy's potential role in the field of neural biology.
