A new human cell line, TR14 , has been established in tissue culture from biopsy material of a primary neuroblastoma tumor. Most TR14 cells have short processes and grow mainly in clumps adhering to cells attached to the substratum. TR14 cells form colonies in soft agar demonstrating anchorage independence of growth and produce tumors in nude mice with histologies similar to that of the patient's tumor. The neurotransmitter-synthesizing activity of these cells is predominantly cholinergic with only a minor adrenergic component, since the activity of choline acetyltransferase is about 20-fold greater than that of tyrosine hydroxylase. Treatment with N6,O2'-dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate induces TR14 neuroblastoma cells to extend fine, long processes or neurites. This morphological change is accompanied by elevated numbers of cytoplasmic dense-core vesicles observed by electron microscopy and an increase in the activities of neurotransmitter-synthesizin...

BACKGROUND Mitochondria are considered a portal to receive, process and integrate external energy and information to maintain cellular homeostasis. Previous studies demonstrated that mitochondrial function and antioxidant capacity of in-vitro cultured mammalian cells is modified by different energetic stimuli including electromagnetic energy, acoustic energy, external Qi and subtle energy emitted by written texts in relatively short time frames. Thus, individual cells can act as a rapid and sensitive biological sensor and act as a platform to evaluate and understand the subtle effect of different biophysical stimuli. Regarding acoustic energy, several different types of music have been reported to produce beneficial effects on human health. OBJECTIVE To compare eastern and western music styles on cell function at the biochemical level to understand the underlying mechanisms involved. Methods In this study, we compared the effects of Chinese five-element music with two types of western music (heavy-metal and classical) on mitochondrial function, oxidative capacity and growth using HEK293T cells (human embryonic kidney cells). RESULTS Unlike rock and classical music, exposing cells to five-element music produced several beneficial physiological effects, including statistically significant increases in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by 17%, glutathione (GSH) by 21% and cell growth rates (14%), as well as a significant reduction in the reactive oxygen species (ROS) by 13%. For the group treated with classical music, there was only a trend toward increased GSH (8%), although the increased growth rates (14%) did reach significance. In sharp contrast, the cells treated with heavy-metal music responded with an opposite and significant 16% increase in ROS and a significant 11% reduction in cell viability. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed the dramatically different and even opposite effects of different styles of music on specific biochemical measures in cultured human cells. These results help explain the underlying biochemical mechanisms of the effects of the different types of music.

The isolation and kinetics of survival of human mast cells from newborn and adult skin is described. Recombinant human interleukins and conditioned medium from several human cell lines were tested for their ability to maintain mast cells in vitro. Growth medium supplemented with IL-2, IL-4 and conditioned medium from a mixed lymphocyte culture enhanced mast cell survival resulting in a 30-fold increase in survival (relative to that obtained with non-supplemented medium) at 7 days, and a 15-fold increase at 15 days. Cell survival for time periods longer than 21 days was not observed. Inclusion of cAMP, agents that elevate cAMP, insulin, and epidermal growth factor in supplemented growth medium prevented the enhanced survival by 40-70%. Incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) into mast cells in 3-day cultures demonstrated that 15% of the mast cell population was capable of proliferation. At 21 days, no incorporation of BrdU could be detected. After 3 days in culture mast cells released 16% of their histamine stores in response to A23187 and 10% in response to anti-human IgE. Electron microscopy of cultured cells at 3 days revealed cells with both intact and empty mast cell granules. These results demonstrate that human skin mast cells proliferate in response to cytokines and release histamine when stimulated with classical secretagogues. Since human skin mast cells retain these basic properties in vitro, they may be useful in further functional studies involving their proliferation and secretion.

The sulphotransferases are a large group of enzymes which transfer sulphate to a broad variety of different substrates, acting by the same general mechanism. Phenolsulphotransferase (PST; EC.2.8.2.1) (Gregory and Lipmann, 1957) is typical of this group in that it catalyzes the transfer of sulphate from a donor, 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulphate (PAPS), so called “active sulphate”, to a wide range of phenols.

The urinary excretion pattern of catecholamines and their metabolites was studied in rats bearing a subcutaneous transplantable phaeochromocytoma. Compared with normal rats, tumour-bearing animals showed a markedly raised excretion of dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline, together with certain of their major acidic and alcoholic metabolites. No evidence of increased octopamine production could be obtained. There was a significant correlation between the output of dopamine and its metabolites, allowing accurate assessment of dopamine turnover rates which were comparable with those observed in human phaeochromocytoma. Tumour development, as determined by tumour weight, also correlated significantly with urinary excretion of noradrenaline and dopamine. Rat phaeochromocytoma appears to be a useful model for the human tumour.

Corona discharge photography of human breast carcinoma biopsies was directly compared with normal adjacent breast tissue from the same patient by photographing the samples simultaneously with a split grounding electrode. Samples were immersed in saline and adjusted to the same weight to ensure identical conditions and to eliminate moisture and pressure artifacts. Tumour samples always showed an increased corona discharge intensity and contained characteristic regions of high intensity light as compared with normal tissue. The technique may therefore be useful as a new non-invasive diagnostic technique for early detection of surface tumours. The results are discussed in terms of a possible contribution of ultra-weak photon emission since this technique gives similar results to those reported here.

We have examined human platelet phenolsulphotransferase (PST) with a wide range of different substrates and compared its activity pattern with that of enzyme in other sites in the human body. The main finding was that the dopamine/phenol activity ratio varied considerably from tissue to tissue, ranging from 5.6 in the jejunum to 0.18 in the adrenal, pointing to the presence of more than one enzyme. Further evidence for the presence of two forms of PST has been obtained by the use of the inhibitor, dichloronitrophenol (DCNP), which selectively inhibited phenol- compared with dopamine-conjugating activity in both platelet and brain. We therefore propose that the two forms of the enzyme be denoted PST P (for phenol) and PST M (for monoamine and monoamine metabolites) respectively. The specific activity of the enzymes towards both phenol and dopamine varied considerably in the different human tissues examined, both being most active in the jejunum and least in the brain. The high activity in the intestine supports the view that the enzymes are important in dealing with exogenous phenols.

The vast literature on dopamine which now exists attests to the pre-eminence it has achieved among the monoamines, since its first recognition as a neurotransmitter in the late 1950’s (Carlsson, 1959). Much of our latter-day interest has been sustained by the finding that L-dopa administration to parkinsonian patients, resulting in dopamine generation in the central nervous system, gives rise to substantial therapeutic benefit (Cotzias et al., 1967). More recently, attention has focussed on the possible role of the amine in schizophrenia (Randrup and Munkvad, 1968). Despite this preoccupation with dopamine, certain metabolic pathways connected with its generation or disposition have still been underinvestigated, particularly in man. This paper sets out to provide a brief evaluation of the importance of four of these pathways in the human brain, L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase, L-dopa transaminase, monoamine oxidase and phenolsulphotransferase.

Because DC electrodermal potential measurements do not involve introducing a current into the body, it was postulated that temporal fluctuations in DC potential values on acupoints would be a useful method for assessing the subtle energetic changes of qi. DC potential measurements from acupoints and nonacupoints were therefore compared when energy healing practitioners were in an external focus state, were healing at a distance (external qi), or were self-healing (internal qi). The results show statistically significant differences between measurements obtained on and off acupoints and between external focus and healing states. Subjects' report of felt sense of the flow of qi moving in their body also correlated with DC potential readings, but only those readings taken on acupoints. The results support the hypothesis that pattern information from temporal fluctuations in DC potential electrodermal measurements reflects the movement and/or amount of a physical, electrical activity that corresponds to the traditional Eastern concept of qi circulating in the body.

Because of our growing interest in the biological activity of electromagnetic fields (EMF), we have set out to establish a model system for studying their mechanism of action at the molecular level. Although in vitro preparations of bone (1,2) and nerve cells (3–6) have been used, the populations are heterogeneous and direct effects on specific membrane events are difficult to monitor. Isolation of specific cell types has been used for red blood cells (7). Separation of neuronal cells, however, requires elaborate time-consuming techniques which are likely to affect the integrity of the membranes i n the final preparation. Single cell clonal lines of neural crest tumors in culture are likely to be useful, since they express many properties associated with normal mature adrenal chromaffin cells (8–13). Neuroblastoma cells are an example of one such line which is being used for EMF studies (14). Recently, Greene and Tischler developed a more differentiated clonal line, PC12, derived from a rat phaeochromocytoma (12) which also exhibits properties of sympathetic neurones including calcium dependent release of neurotransmitters (8,9,11).

The effects of focused intention have nonetheless been studied using both physical (Jahn and Dunne, 1986) and biological systems (Braud, 1989), and is often referred to respectively as psychokinesis (PK) and Bio-PK. A parallel investigation of conscious intention on biological systems falls under the auspices of healing research where investigators have demonstrated that various types of healers can produce biological effect (Benor, 1990). A third line of investigation involves the study of Chi-Gong practitioners who can also influence biological systems. Most of these studies, however, are phenomenological and are only intended to demonstrate an energetic communication between the practitioner and the biological target. In most healing experiments the intention of the practitioner is to “heal” or normalize the pathological situation.

At the heart of all Dimensional Design technology is the concept of information storage. The encoded information is described as a “vibrational program composed of specific frequencies”. The encoded information is believed to be permanent and not susceptible to electromagnetic fields (EMF) in the environment or other environmental stressors like extremes in temperature and noxious chemicals. A second fundamental premise of all Dimensional Design products is that they emit a coherent quantum information field which has a variety of effects, depending on the specific product. In the case of the ClearLine Protection Technology, for example, the quantum field is believed to resonate with EMFs from electronic devices. As a result of such an interaction, artificial EMFs are brought into a new coherent order. The EMFs are stabilized thereby altering the way they interact with biological systems.

Classic holography involves a reference beam and an object beam (which bounces off an object) which interact and form a holographic interference pattern on a holographic plate (grating). This method has been used for numerous applications and theoretical models. Holographic information storage is often utilized in the field of opto-electronics.

Previous preliminary studies with the medallion indicated that the energy it emits “energized” an herbal product (from Clar8ty). However, the mechanism whereby The medallion’s energy could increase the electrical energy in/through a product is unknown. The present study experimentally tests the hypothesis that the medallion’s energy alters the electrical properties of the solvent (water) which then transfers that electrical energy into the herbal mixture. The electrical properties of water were measured using a specially designed method developed at the Quantum-Biology Research Lab. Such measurements have been shown to be extremely sensitive to external energies like electromagnetic/acoustic energy, scalar energy, bio-energy, paramagnetic energy and subtle energy generated by various commercial devices.

Experimentation in humans indicates that electromagnetic fields (EMF) have detrimental effects. EMF have been reported to induce a wide variety of adverse clinical effects which include: adverse reproductive outcomes, neuro-degenerative diseases, headaches, depression, sleep disorder and fatigue. These effects have been validated by large-scale, double blind clinical studies and clearly indicate that a variety of detrimental effects can occur in humans exposed to EMF from man-made technology. Exposure of human skin to EMF provokes different effects with large individual variability. In order to analyze the effect of electric and magnetic fields on human skin a new technology called Gas Discharge Visualizationis is being developed. Gas Discharge Visualization (GDV) generates gas discharge images of the air gap around the skin in response to a train of triangular electrical pulses (0.1 second duration, 1000 Hz, 3kV and 10 6 V/s). The electric field initiates electron-ion avalanches, w...

Objectives: To explore the effects of Qi-invigorating herbs on mitochondrial function using cultured cells and animal organs. Methods: Using water extracts of Astragali radix, we investigated the effect of “Qi-invigoration” on M-1 renal cells and mouse organs in-vitro including total adenylate production (TAP), reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). We also examined the effect on antioxidant capacity by conducting an analysis of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH). Results: 1) Astragali radix increased mitochondrial TAP generation and decreased ROS levels in both mouse kidney tissues and M-1 renal cells. 2) Astragali radix also significantly increased MMP and GSH levels in M-1 cells, but in the kidney tissue, there was no significant change in MMP levels and a decrease in GSH levels. 3) Astragali radix stimulated TAP levels in the heart, spleen, lung, kidney and skeletal muscle tissue, which was accompanied by the reduction of ...

This study is designed to demonstrate that Lifewave patches emit ane energy field and to develop a cell-free in-vitro bioassay for this emitted energy. Human DNA was used as a target biomolecule because it is known to respond to both classical and non-classical electromagnetic (EM) fields. The electrical properties of DNA were measured because they are known to correlate with physiological functions of DNA in-vivo and the electrical properties are highly sensitive to the external environment. Glass vials containing DNA were placed on top of a Lifewave patch placed on the P8 acupoint. Electrical properties of DNA were immediately measured and shown to significantly increase (compared to non-patch controls) under certain excitation conditions. Since the DNA was separated from the patch by a glass barrier, it can be concluded that the DNA is altered by some type of energy field emitted by the patch.

Physicists are well aware of of the existence of energy fields which have properties which are not explained by the classical equations of Maxwell or Schrodinger. Experimental anomalies associated with “free energy” research may also involve non-classical energy fields, refered to here as quantum fields. Recent findings in biology indicate that certain biomolecules act as superconductors and biological systems in general exhibit non-local, global properties which are consistent with their ability to function at the quantum level. The possibilities that such anomalous behavior might be accounted for by the presence of endogenous quantum fields in biological systems has received little attention. Experimental evidence is presented in this paper in support of this hypothesis. It has been previously proposed that quantum fields can be generated (in combination with potential fields) from selfcanceling coils with unique winding geometries. These coils were used to demonstrate that quantu...

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Because of its superior information processing capability, previous authors have proposed that phase conjugation holography offers a feasible mechanism to explain various aspects of human perception. These previous models focused on the relationship between the perceived image of an object and the actual object with little attention to the anatomical location of the phase-conjugation mirror. The present article proposes that phase-conjugation mirrors exist in the brain as 3D networks of organic molecules previously observed to exhibit phase-conjugation behavior. In particular rhodopsin photoreceptor molecules are proposed to form extra-retinal, deep brain networks which function as phase-conjugation mirrors which are distributed throughout the brain. Furthermore, such networks are proposed to convert endogenous biophotons into virtual holograms which function to store cognitive information in the brain. Such a system offers a new functi...

GDV and heart rate variability (HRV) measures were taken in healthy volunteers before and after three different physiological conditions: the orthostatic test consisting of deep breathing followed by rapid standing; ten minutes of strenuous exercise and consumption of chocolate. Statistical significance was observed between certain GDV parameters and spectral analysis of HRV for all three conditions. Such an analysis of HRV supplies information on the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system as they regulate heart rate. Previous investigations have shown that the parasympathetic system dominates during exercise, whereas the sympathetic system predominates during the orthotest. In either situation the sympathetic component of HRV was correlated with the GDV. Similar correlations were observed when there was balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. These correlations indicate that GDV measures can be used as a measure of well-being in diff...

Introduction: The first utilization of gemstones as a biomedical treatment modality dates back to approximately 5000 BC, when Ayurvedic physicians realized their healing properties. Although gemstones and gem elixers (aqueous extracts of gemstones) were continually used to treat a variety of physical, mental and emotional imbalances over the next 7000 years, there is a surprising scarcity of scientific research in this area. Nonetheless it is known that individual mineral elements (eg. Cu, Zn, Fe, Cr) leached from a gemstone have biological effects (Hambidge, 2003). Although these minerals would be predicted to occur at extremely low concentrations, biological effects are nonetheless observed when ground gemstones are topically applied to the skin of animals (Scholey, 1995) and humans (Yoo, 2002). Other scientific studies, however, have placed a physical barrier between the gemstone and the biological system and have still observed effects both in vitro using blood cells (Niwa, 1993...

These include: the chemical composition of the aqueous solutions, the type of experimental vessel, the dilution step, and the origin of the DNA fragments. The results indicate that partially introducing essential ingredients for DNA amplification (i.e. dNTPs and PCR buffer) to the aqueous solution enhanced the transduction rate greatly, and transduction vessels made of hydrophilic quartz yielded more favorable results than vessels made of hydrophobic plastic. In addition, performing a serial dilution to the transduction solution more than doubled the transduction rate compared to that without the dilution step. For the DNA fragments used in this study, there was one with a pathogenic origin and two with non-pathogenic origins. However, all three fragments achieved DNA transduction reg...

Although it is well known that stress can trigger and exacerbate psoriasis, the exact mechanism is unknown. An explanation is presented based on recent findings in psychoneuroimmunology. The number of cutaneous sensory nerves known to release neuropeptides, such as substance P, is increased in patients with psoriasis. Preliminary data indicate altered concentrations in psoriatic lesions of the same neuropeptides known to be altered in the brain during stress. An anatomical pathway is suggested to explain how descending information from the brain could cause release of neuropeptides in the skin, which would then induce psoriasis. Biochemical and clinical evidence is presented to support the relationship between stress and psoriasis.
