Résumé

High powered, nanosecond duration pulsed electric fields (nsPEF) have been proposed as a minimal side-effect, electrical cancer therapy, unlikely to result in resistance. They induce apoptotic death in cancerous cells and reduce tumour size by a currently unknown mechanism [1,2]. Microtubule depolymerisation is an intrinsic, early event in normally occurring apoptosis and electric fields have been shown to disrupt microtubule polymerisation [3,4]. Given this, it is therefore possible that nsPEF cause microtubule depolymerisation, which initiates apoptosis.
