The effect of 4.3 GHz high-power microwave exposure on human corneal epithelial cells
These findings demonstrate that moderate-dose 4.3 GHz HPM exposure induces a uniquely strong stress response in HCE-T cells, characterized by oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and activation of stress-related signaling pathways. These results highlight the importance of considering specific exposure conditions in assessing HPM bioeffects and ocular safety.
