ABSTRACT: This is a review of recent literature concerning electromagnetic effects on cellular
mechanics. “Recent” refers primarily to papers published in this (the 21st) century.
The review shows that there are relatively few papers on cellular electromagnetics as
compared with those on proteins, biochemistry, and cellular anatomy. The principal
finding of the reviewed papers is that cellular electromagnetic fields appear to arise
from longitudinal vibrations of the filaments making up the walls of the microtubules.
Microtubules are long hollow cylinders which form the overall structure of the
centrioles. The microtubules, and therefore the centrioles themselves, are arranged in
nine sets of parallel blades with each blade having three microtubules. The centrioles
occur in pairs perpendicularly to each other. During mitosis (cell division) the centriole
pair becomes two pair which then separate and divide the cell into two. It
seems that electromagnetic forces play a central role in this division. Electromagnetic
activity in wound healing and in the imaging and treatment of tumors is discussed.
