Recent research indicates that audible sound can alter gene activity in mouse precursor muscle cells, impacting over 100 genes involved in significant biological processes. Conducted by Kyoto University, the study subjected mouse myoblast cells to various sound frequencies for short durations. Findings revealed that this exposure led to increased gene activity related to cell adhesion and other critical functions. This expands previous knowledge of sound's biological effects seen with ultrasound, paving the way for potential medical applications using ordinary sound waves.
The new study expands the concept of how sound affects biology, showing that audible sound can alter gene activity in mouse cells and boost muscle precursor attachment.
Experiments revealed more than 100 genes that respond to audible sounds, showcasing possible medical applications that could arise from understanding these interactions.
