微波辐照对神经认知、免疫功能影响的研究进展及展望

Progress and prospect of studies on the effects of microwave irradiation on cognition and immune function

有关电磁辐射的研究以往主要集中在对电子仪器的影响和危害方面,而对生物体健康影响的报道很少。虽然射频辐射对人体健康影响的研究最早可追溯到20世纪50年代,但是微波作为射频辐射的一种,对生物体影响的研究近十几年才受到重视。目前,微波辐照对神经认知、免疫功能的影响是微波生物效应领域的重点研究内容之一。本文主要针对近年来微波辐射对其敏感的靶器官-神经系统、免疫系统影响的研究进展及其可能的机制作一概述,以期为同行领域的研究者提供借鉴与参考。

Previously investigation on electromagnetic radiation （EMR）were mainly focused in the influences and hazards to electronic devices, while few articles were reported concerning its effects on living organisms. Only in recent decades, the effects of microwave, as one of radio frequency （RF） radiation, on biological bodies has evoked scientists＇ interests, although the studies on the effects of RF radiation on health of mankind may ascend to the fifties last century. At present, effect of microwave radiation on cognition and immune function is one of the most focal points in research field concerning microwave-induced biological effect. In present paper, the progress and prospect of studies on the effects and mechanism of microwave irradiation on critical organs of nervous and immune systems were reviewed to provide some important references to peer investigators.
