Platelets of unstable angina patients as effector cells in terahertz radiation at NO frequency

Abstract

Aim. To investigate the effects of electromagnetic terahertz waves at NO MSIP (molecular specter of radiation and absorption), 240 Hz, on platelet functional activity Р in natural electromagnetic field, as well as in crossed magnetic and electric fields among unstable angina patients. Material and methods. This in vitro study was performed on samples of platelet-enriched plasma from 120 unstable angina patients. The study of terahertz waves and platelets interaction at NO MSRA specter, 240 GHz, was performed with original quasi-optic SW generator of determined noises (CRIMD, Saratov). Functional activity of platelets (activation and aggregation) was measured by laser aggregation analyzer (Biola-230 Ltd.). Results. After in-vitro radiation of platelet-enriched plasma from unstable angina patients, at NO MSRA frequency, 240 GHz, disturbed platelet aggregation activity was normalized. Conclusion. Therefore, terahertz waves, at NO frequency, 240 GHz, substantially decreased elevated aggregation activity of the platelets from unstable angina patients.
