Özet
Purpose: To evaluate the characteristic features of mechanical responses and the membrane potential changes induced by repetitive pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF, 50 Hz, 5 mT) in thoracic aorta rings obtained from streptozotocin-induced diabetic and healthy control rats to determine if PEMF could ameliorate problems associated with diabetes.Methods: Sixty male Wistar rats weighing 250–290 g were randomly divided into two experimental groups, each containing 30 animals. Streptozotocin was given via tail vein to produce diabetes mellitus (DM) in the first group rats. The second group rats were treated only with % 0.9 saline and considered as non-DM group. Both groups were also divided into two subgroups as DM + PEMF, DM + sham, PEMF and sham, each containing 15 animals. Although the DM + PEMF and PEMF groups were treated, the DM + sham and sham groups were not treated with PEMF …
