A peer-reviewed study in Reproductive Toxicology found that paternal exposure to 5G radiofrequency radiation in mice induced anxiety-like behaviors and impaired sperm quality in male offspring, potentially mediated by epigenetic changes to the LRGUK gene.
"Paternal 5G RFR exposure induced anxiety-like behaviors and impaired sperm quality in F1 males, potentially associated with RFR-induced hypermethylation of paternal LRGUK gene and subsequent down regulation of its expression in offspring testes."
