[Role of the antioxidant system of the brain in the antineoplastic mechanism of ultra-low frequency magnetic fields].

The study deals with the possible effects of ultra low frequency magnetic fields (ULF MF) on carcinogenesis in the brain and oxidative metabolism disorders associated with it. Animals were exposed to modulated ULF MF at pathogenetically-sensitive stages of the "biochemical restructuring" of the body. This allowed to adjust carcinogenic development by extending latent period of tumor and life span of tumor-bearing animals.
