  ABSTRACT: The study investigated the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) of different frequencies on the gene expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (RANK) and Nuclear factor of activated T-cells cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1) in rat osteoblast and osteoclast co-cultured model. Osteoblast-like cells were isolated from calvariae of Newborn Sprague Dawley rats (SD rats), while osteoclast-like cells were obtained from femora and tibiae of five weeks old SD rats. After 1 days of co-culture, the cells were exposed to premarin (E2) and different frequencies of PEMFs (8 Hz and 16 Hz, respectively) for 3 days. The expression of RANK and NFATc1 mRNA was analysed with realtime quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The gene expression of RANK and NFATc1 in the E2, PEMF with 8 Hz and 16 Hz group was significantly lower than that in the control group respectively. The gene expression of NFATc1 in the PEMF with 8 Hz group was significantly lower than that in the control group and PEMF with 16 Hz group. The study indicates that PEMF with 8 Hz could regulate the gene expression of RANK and NFATc1 in co-cultured model.
