Abstract
Disclosed are a composition for the diagnosis of exposure to electromagnetic radiation, comprising an agent capable of measuring the expression level of the diagnostic marker, a diagnosis kit comprising the same, a method for detecting the diagnostic marker, and a method for the diagnosis of exposure to electromagnetic radiation. The diagnostic markers are very useful for monitoring and diagnosing exposure to electromagnetic fields, and can be used as instruments by which physiological mechanisms incurred upon electromagnetic radiation exposure are examined.

A composition for diagnosis of exposure to electromagnetic radiation, comprising an agent capable of measuring at an mRNA or protein level the expression level of genes given in Table 6.
A method for detecting diagnostic marker genes of Table 6, comprising:
- measuring at an mRNA or protein level the expression level of genes given in Table 6 in a sample from a subject;
- and
- comparing the expression level of the genes with that of corresponding genes from a normal control.
