Induction of growth and proliferation of fibroblast cells in magnetic field

Tissue engineering is generally defined as developing and changing the laboratory growth of molecules and cells in tissues or organs to replace and repair the damaged part of body. This study was carried out to stimulate the growth of cultured fibroblast cells by a physical electromagnetic method. First، an air-core coil was prepared and the cell culture plate was placed comfortably into the mold، then the plate containing the culture medium and human fibroblast cell along with air-core coil were placed in an incubator and then connected to the power supply. Thus، the sample underwent electromagnetic field at different times، and cell proliferation was studied byMTTassay. Microscopic images indicated that the cells undergoing electromagnetic field (0. 3 amps) had a significant growth compared to the cells in control group in a definit range of stimulation. In conclusion، electromagnetic stimulation in a definite range led to cell proliferation and could be used as a positive factor in tissue engineering.
