Nanosecond pulsed electric field induced cytoskeleton, nuclear membrane and telomere damage adversely impact cell survival.
We investigated the effects of nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEF) on three human cell lines and demonstrated cell shrinkage, breakdown of the cytoskeleton, nuclear membrane and chromosomal telomere damage. There was a differential response between cell types coinciding with cell survival. Jurkat cells showed cytoskeleton, nuclear membrane and telomere damage that severely impacted cell s...
متن کاملNanosecond pulsed electric fields trigger cell differentiation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) have great potential for biotechnological and medical applications. However, the biological mechanisms causing the cellular responses are still far from understood. We used the unicellular green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii as experimental model to dissect the immediate consequences of electroporation from the developmental cellular responses evoked...
متن کاملElectrosensitization assists cell ablation by nanosecond pulsed electric field in 3D cultures
Previous studies reported a delayed increase of sensitivity to electroporation (termed "electrosensitization") in mammalian cells that had been subjected to electroporation. Electrosensitization facilitated membrane permeabilization and reduced survival in cell suspensions when the electric pulse treatments were split in fractions. The present study was aimed to visualize the effect of sensitiz...
متن کاملTwo Modes of Cell Death Caused by Exposure to Nanosecond Pulsed Electric Field
High-amplitude electric pulses of nanosecond duration, also known as nanosecond pulsed electric field (nsPEF), are a novel modality with promising applications for cell stimulation and tissue ablation. However, key mechanisms responsible for the cytotoxicity of nsPEF have not been established. We show that the principal cause of cell death induced by 60- or 300-ns pulses in U937 cells is the lo...
متن کاملPulsed laser determination of surface electric charge distributions
2014 We propose a new method for high resolution determination of surface electric charge distributions on a dielectric plate. The method is based on the measurement of the variation of the charges induced on a probe when the charges to be measured are being displaced. This local perturbatidn is achieved by means of a laser pulse focused on a thin absorbing target adjacent to the dielectric. By...
