Is there any SCIENTIFIC evidence of the effect of ultrasound on chemical repair of DNA? As in, is there peer-reviewed research in this?
Thanks.
Thanks.
According to the introduction the ultrasound treatment leads to increased intracellular drug levels, I haven't read the study so I can't comment on the validity.Andy Resnick said:I couldn't read the whole article, just the abstract, but it doesn't make any sense. Ultrasound (MHz) has wavelengths in the millimeter range- how can targeted subcellular damage occur?
The abstract also did not mention the incident energy level, but I suspect it's much lower than occurs with UV damage.
Ultrasound is a type of energy that can be used to manipulate and repair DNA. It has been shown to increase the rate of DNA repair in cells, particularly in cases of UV-induced DNA damage.
Ultrasound works by creating sound waves that cause vibrations in the cells, which in turn stimulate the enzymes responsible for repairing DNA damage. This process can help to prevent mutations and maintain the integrity of the genetic code.
Research has shown that ultrasound can be effective in repairing DNA damage in human cells. However, more studies are needed to determine the safety and effectiveness of using ultrasound for DNA repair in humans.
While ultrasound has been shown to be relatively safe for medical use, there are potential risks associated with its use for DNA repair. These include potential damage to surrounding tissues and cells, as well as potential interference with normal cellular processes.
While ultrasound has shown promise in repairing DNA damage, it is not currently used as a treatment for genetic diseases. More research is needed to fully understand its potential uses and limitations in this area.
