RESUMO
Tissue repair and regeneration is a vital biological process in organisms, which is influenced by various internal mechanisms and microenvironments. Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) are becoming a potential medical technology due to its advantages of effectiveness and non-invasiveness. Numerous studies have demonstrated that PEMFs can stimulate stem cell proliferation and differentiation, regulate inflammatory reactions, accelerate wound healing, which is of great significance for tissue regeneration and repair, providing a solid basis for enlarging its clinical application. However, some important issues such as optimal parameter system and potential deep mechanisms remain to be resolved due to PEMFs window effect and biological complexity. Thus, it is of great importance to comprehensively summarizing and analyzing the literature related to the biological effects of PEMFs in tissue regeneration and repair. This review expounded the biological effects of PEMFs on stem cells, inflammation response, wound healing and musculoskeletal disorders in order to improve the application value of PEMFs in medicine. It is believed that with the continuous exploration of biological effects of PEMFs, it will be applied increasingly widely to tissue repair and other diseases.
