Precise Electromagnetic Modulation of the Cell Cycle and Its Applications in Cancer Therapy

Precise modulation of the cell cycle via electromagnetic (EM) control presents a groundbreaking approach for cancer therapy, especially in the development of personalized treatment strategies. EM fields can precisely regulate key cellular homeostatic mechanisms such as proliferation, apoptosis, and repair by finely tuning parameters like frequency, intensity, and duration. This review summarizes the mechanisms through which EM fields influence cancer cell dynamics, highlighting recent developments in high-throughput electromagnetic modulation platforms that facilitate precise cell cycle regulation. Additionally, the integration of electromagnetic modulation with emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, immunotherapy, and nanotechnology is explored, collectively enhancing targeting precision, immune activation, and therapeutic efficacy. A systematic analysis of existing clinical studies indicates that EM modulation technology significantly overcomes key challenges such as tumor heterogeneity, microenvironment complexity, and treatment-related adverse effects. This review summarizes the prospects of electromagnetic modulation in clinical translation and future research directions, emphasizing its critical potential as a core element in individualized and multimodal cancer treatment strategies.
