U.S. lab studies demonstrate regeneration and growth of nerve cells
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
A successful laboratory experiment by U.S. researchers revealed that growth, repair and return of nerve cell function has been achieved, which could open up new avenues of research.
Scientists from the Foundation for Jacobson Resonance (FJR) have reported results from cell, mice, and human clinical case studies, which used Magnetic Resonance Therapy, (MRT).
The healing effects of electro-magnetic fields have been known about for many decades.
MRT has been proven to provide a regulatory effect through the autonomic nervous system, providing bone-cartilage cell stimulation.
In addition, wound healing, relieving pain and improving metabolic situation in patients.
The findings showed that treated nerve segments maintained normal Schwann cells and a normal myelin sheath structure.
Studies of DNA extracted from both treated and untreated nerve segments showed no DNA degradation, nor were there uncontrolled cell proliferation.
"These results are the first to demonstrate a biological effect of electromagnetic fields in-vivo on the restoration of sub-cellular structures required for nerve impulse conduction and metabolism in recovery from motor neuropathy, under controlled experimental conditions," said Professor Emeritus Anjali Saxena of Fairleigh Dickinson University.
After completing in-vitro studies, Professor Brij Saxena and Professor Emeritus Anjali Saxena conducted in-vivo (in the living system) studies.
One study was performed at Cornell and the next replicate study with greater population of mice was accomplished at Fairleigh Dickinson University.
The effect of Jacobson's MRT magnetic fields on the restoration of forelimb grip strength and radial nerve (forelimb) ultra-structure was studied in mice.
Motor neuropathy was induced by the administration of a neurotoxin (poison) in drinking water for nine and a half weeks.
Forelimb grip strength of mice declined to 47 per cent compared to the non-poisoned control group.
The poisoned group without any MRT treatment persisted to have a 56 per cent decrease in grip strength, and the electron microscope photographs (see attachment) showed loss of myelin, decreased energy production of cells and fragmentation of sub-cellular structures responsible for slow and fast nerve conduction.
