microcurrent raises caspase and TNFα activity, signaling increased tumor cell death in lab findings
Microcurrent stimulation increased caspase activity and TNFα expression in tumors, indicating enhanced tumor cell death and reduced immunosuppression (decreased TGFβ1 expression) in the tumor microenvironment.
What this means for you
Caspase activity is a key marker of programmed cell death — the body's built-in process for clearing out damaged or abnormal cells. When TNFα rises alongside it, the immune environment becomes less suppressive and more active. These are early-stage lab findings, but they point to microcurrent's potential role in supporting the body's natural cellular housekeeping.
