Effects of exposure to various frequencies of EMF on P2X7 expression in osteogenic differentiated h-MSCs. a qRT-PCR and b Western blot analysis of P2X7 expression in h-MSCs exposed to various frequencies of EMF (7.5, 15, 30, 50, and 75 Hz of 1 mT) for 7, 14, and 21 days. The mRNA and protein expression of P2X7 was normalized against GAPDH. Data represent means ± SD. Statistically significant differences are indicated; n = 3; *P < 0.05, vs. control
