Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of SP600125, SB203580, or PD98059 on 3.5 GHz EMF-induced growth suppression of BV2 cells and phosphorylation of JNK-1/2, p38 MAPK (MK2), or ERK-1/2 in BV2 cells. ( A ) BV2 cells were exposed to 3.5 GHz EMFs without or with SP600125 (25 μM), a JNK-1/2 inhibitor, SB203580 (25 μM), a p38 MAPK inhibitor, or PD98059 (50 μM), an ERK-1/2 inhibitor for 2 h. The number of surviving cells was analyzed using cell count analysis. Data represent the mean ± SE of three independent experiments. * p < 0.01 compared with the values of the control (no 3.5 GHz EMF exposure). # p < 0.01 compared with the values of 3.5 GHz EMF exposure (no drug), as determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Sidak’s post hoc test. ( B ) A representative image of morphological changes in the conditioned cells in ( A ). ( C ) BV2 cells were exposed to 3.5 GHz EMFs without or with SP600125 (25 μM), SB203580 (25 μM), or PD98059 (50 μM) for 2 h. Whole-cell lysates from the conditioned cells were prepared and analyzed using Western blotting with antibodies.
