\nPlain Language SummaryThe effect of non-ionizing millimeter range electromagnetic waves (MM EMW) (30–300 GHz) on the bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction peculiarities with acridine orange (AO) has been studied in vitro. The frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz were chosen, since the first one is nonresonant frequency for the water, while the second one is resonant for water. The binding constant and number of binding sites were calculated at both irradiation presence and absence. AO was revealed to bind to BSA, while after the protein irradiation the interaction force strengthens. However, it was also shown that there are differences of the interaction parameters while irradiating by 41.8 or 50.3 GHz. AO binds to BSA, irradiated by MM EMW with the frequency 41.8 GHz much more weaker, than to that, irradiated by MM EMW with the frequency 50.3 GHz.The manuscript is devoted to the study of the effect of millimeter range electromagnetic waves with the frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz on the model biological system, being on molecular level of organization. Nowadays millimeter range electromagnetic waves compose a significant part of electromagnetic pollution in the environment and affect biological material, besides these waves are used in extremely high frequencies-therapy ((30–300 GHz), which are millimeter range electromagnetic waves (1–10 mm)). On the other hand, the problem of their effect mechanism is mainly connected to water, since the resonant frequencies for water molecules are in the interval of millimeter waves. In the present study, as such biological molecule, the bovine serum albumin has been chosen, which interacts with acridine orange. Serum albumins are known to carry and transport various endogenous and exogenous agents, including drugs throughout circulatory system. In turn, acridine orange has been extensively used for biological staining to differentiate DNA from RNA by fluorescence emission for years, Nowadays, it is considered as a promising agent for antitumorous treatment and diagnosis.The data obtained show that the interaction between bovine serum albumin and acridine orange changes, when the solution of albumin is irradiated by the millimeter waves with the frequencies 41.8 and 50.3 GHz. However, the interaction alteration depends on the frequency as well. Thus, the irradiation with the frequency 41.8 GHz makes insignificant changes, while that with the frequency 50.3 GHz induces significant changes of measured parameters. The studies were conducted by absorption, fluorescence and CD spectroscopy methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work the study of the effect of millimeter range electromagnetic waves (MM EMW) on the complexes of human serum albumin (HSA) with methyl violet (MV) has been carried out at the different frequencies, using the methods of fluorescence and thermodenaturation. It was shown that MV binds to HSA, forming a complex, and increasing of the intensity of the protein own fluorescence takes place, meanwhile the stabilization of HSA increases. MM EMW irradiation of HSA by various frequencies invokes additional changes in the protein structure. Thus, at the protein irradiation with the frequency 41.8 GHz the protein stabilization increases as well as hydrophobicity around the tryptophan rises, while at the irradiation with 51.8 GHz the stabilization is expressed less and the hydrophobicity enhancement around the tryptophan can be neglected.

Thermostability of mitoxantrone complexes with DNA of sarcoma 45 and healthy rat liver earlier irradiated by non-thermal (50 µW/cm²) resonant (64.5 GHz and 50.3 GHz) and non-resonant (48.3 GHz) of water hexagonal structure frequencies millimeter electromagnetic waves (MEW) oscillations has been studied. It was shown that at irradiation of solutions by resonant with water hexagonalstructurefrequencies, a dehydration of nucleotides of irradiated DNA and Na+ ions existing in the solution occurs. At relatively low concentrations of mitoxantrone it results in decreasing of thermostability of complexes with DNA, moreover this change is more pronounced at complex-formation with DNA from sarcoma 45 tumor. It was shown that the thermostability of the radiated by non-resonant frequents DNA-MTX complexes does not change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The effect of electromagnetic waves of extremely high frequencies (EMW EHF) on the blood plasma surface tension coefficient and the albumin denaturation parameters was studied. It was shown that blood plasma irradiation, taken from rats, results in significant increasing of its surface tension coefficient value compared to that of non- irradiated samples. It was also shown that a reliable difference between irradiated samples by 41.8 GHz and 51.8 GHz frequencies was not noticed. Albumin solution denaturation parameters under to irradiation were studied. It was shown that protein denaturation curve shifting to high temperature region occurs which means that stabilization of protein structure takes place. It was shown that protein denaturation curve shifts to high temperature region, which means that stabilization of protein structure, takes place. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
