    Notes: We have investigated in vitro the effects of the electrical field produced by constant current on freshly isolated rabbit osteoclasts and on well characterized clonal rat osteoblastlike cells. At field strengths of 0.1 and 1 V/mm, the osteoclasts migrated rapidly toward the positive electrode, whereas the osteoblastlike cells migrated in the opposite direction, toward the negative electrode. Thus, different cell types from the same tissue can respond differently to the same electrical signal. These results have important implications for hypotheses concerning the cellular mechanism of galvanotaxis, and may also clarify the cellular basis of the clinical application of electrical stimulation of bone healing.

    Notes: Effects of extremely-low-frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields on proliferation of rabbit-ligament fibroblasts were examined. Markedly different effects, ranging from inhibition to stimulation of proliferation, were obtained, depending on the signal parameters of amplitude, frequency, and DC magnetic field. These results demonstrate that simple, single-frequency signals can have dramatic effects on ligament cells, which may be useful for bioelectrical stimulation of growth and repair. Also, the range of frequencies examined in this study covered those commonly used in transmission of electrical energy (50 or 60 Hz), which indicates that further study of possible effects of exposure to fields generated by power transmission equipment is warranted.

    Notes: Uniform electrical fields have been applied to human gingival fibroblasts by means of uniform ionic currents passed through a thin chamber. Cells were observed to align in fields between 0.1 and 1.5 V/mm but did not display directed motion toward the anode or the cathode of the chamber. Statistical analysis of directional data was used to distinguish threshold levels of orientation at low field intensities, to quantify the dependence of alignment on time and field intensity, and to analyze differences between alignment of cells treated with the Ca2+ transport modifiers A23187, verapamil, and lanthanum. Alignment occurred at a steady rate and was dependent in a saturating fashion on field strength. The Ca2+ ionophore A23187 had a significant inhibitory effect on cell alignment in applied electrical fields; however, the Ca2+ channel blockers lanthanum and verapamil did not have a significant effect on alignment.
