  "main_findings": "Daily microwave-range electromagnetic radiation exposure in mice with Ehrlich ascites carcinoma was associated with altered tumor growth dynamics, including a decrease in the total number of tumor cells. The number of tumor cells showing blebbing morphology increased gradually with tumor growth after microwave radiation; the maximum proportion of blebbing cells was observed during active proliferation in non-irradiated control mice.",
