What this paper brings together
A 2025 review of gene-expression responses to RF exposure, including stress, repair and cell-signalling pathways.
The authors’ synthesis or proposal
Reviews RF-associated expression changes in genes involved in protein repair, oxidative responses, apoptosis, DNA damage responses and neural function; interprets the pattern as consistent with cellular stress.
Reading the connections carefully
Gene-expression changes are not equivalent to injury or a clinical diagnosis. Different biological systems and exposure conditions are combined without a single risk estimate.
