Using total RNA isolated from 0.8 ml 50 Hz MF exposed cells and those from sham-exposed cells, one differentially regulated transcript has been found by DD and the expression pattern of the same transcript has been verified by reverse-Northern and Northern analyses. DNA sequence analysis and Genbank research demonstrated that the cDNA fragment (MF-CA) is a novel gene in human cell which is induced by ELF MF.展开更多
