The static magnetic fields, in the range from 0 to 670 mT, heavily influenced not only the rates of viability, necrosis and apoptosis of human macrophages, but also the expression of their membranal protein markers CD14 and CD64. The infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis led to a significant decrease of these harmful magnetic-field effects. [...]
