Microgravity effect on C. elegans N2/VC (CERISE 4 days)
Microgravity effect on C. elegans gene expression was analysed by whole genome microarray. The worms were cultivated under microgravity for 4 days in the Japanese Module of the... -
Woman skeletal muscle transcriptome with bed rest and countermeasures.
Microgravity has a dramatic impact on human physiology illustrated in particular with skeletal muscle impairment. A thorough understanding of the mechanisms leading to loss of... -
Microgravity effect on C. elegans N2/VC (CERISE 8days)
Microgravity effect on C. elegans gene expression was analysed by whole genome microarray. The worms were cultivated under microgravity for 8 days in the Japanese Module of the... -
Dynamic gene expression response to altered gravity in human T cells...
We investigated differentially regulated genes in human Jurkat T lymphocytic cells in 20s and 5min microgravity and in hypergravity and compared expression profiles to identify... -
Synergistic effects of microgravity and space radiation (Nimblegen)
Space radiations and microgravity both could cause DNA damage in cells but the effects of microgravity on DNA damage response to space radiations are still controversial. A mRNA... -
Identifying radiation exposure biomarkers from mouse blood transcriptome
Here we present a whole-genome survey of the murine transcriptomic response to physiologically-relevant radiation doses 2 and 8 Gy. There are 18 distinct biological samples... -
RAD51 Interconnects Between DNA Replication DNA Repair and Immunity
RAD51 a multifunctional protein plays a central role in DNA replication and homologous recombination repair and is known to be involved in cancer development. We identified a... -
Microarray Analysis of Space-flown Murine Thymus Tissue
Microarray Analysis of Space-flown Murine Thymus Tissue Reveals Changes in Gene Expression Regulating Stress and Glucocorticoid Receptors. We used microarrays to detail the gene... -
The Arabidopsis spaceflight transcriptome: a comparison of whole plants to...
Arabidopsis thaliana was evaluated for its response to the spaceflight environment in three replicated experiments on the International Space Station. Two approaches were used;... -
Effects of a Closed Space Environment on Gene Expression in Hair Follicles...
In recent times long-term stay has become a common occurrence in the International Space Station (ISS). However adaptation to the space environment can sometimes pose... -
Proton irradiation augments the reduction in tumor progression observed with...
Proton irradiation is touted for its improved tumor targeting due to the physical advantages of ion beams for radiotherapy. Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that in... -
The influence of simulated microgravity on the proteome of Daphnia magna
Background/Objectives: The waterflea Daphnia is an interesting candidate for bioregenerative life support systems (BLSS). These animals are particularly promising because of... -
BRIC-23 GeneLab Process Verification Test: Bacillus subtilis transcriptomic...
Microbes interact with humans in complex ways and understanding how they respond to the spaceflight environment is important to the success of future manned spaceflight... -
Rodent Research-1 (RR1) NASA Validation Flight: Mouse liver transcriptomic...
RR-1 is a validation flight to evaluate the hardware operational and science capabilities of the Rodent Research Project on the ISS. RNA DNA and protein were purified from liver... -
BASE-A space experiment with Rhodospirillum rubrum S1H
R. rubrum S1H inoculated on solid minimal media was sent to the ISS in September 2006 (BASE-A experiment). After 10 days flight R. rubrum cultures returned back to Earth. These... -
Gene expression profiling of C. elegans under various thermal conditions
To realistically evaluate the effects of the environment in space it is necessary to understand the effects of external factors during sample transport from Earth to space. The... -
Genechip analysis of bone marrow osteoprogenitors exposed to microgravity
In March 2006 murine Bone Marrow Stromal Cells (BMSC) were flown in the Soyuz 12S to the International Space Station to investigate the effects of microgravity on their... -

Transcriptional crosstalk between mammary gland liver and adipose tissue Experiment Overall Design: Pregnant and Lactating rats exposed to 3 gravity conditions -
Gene expression profiling in human fibroblast after low-LET irradiation
Exposure to radiation provokes cellular responses controlled in part by gene expression networks. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs which mostly regulate gene... -
Gene-expression profiling of Saccharomyces cerevisiae irradiated by high-LET...
Ionizing radiations are categorized by linear energy transfer (LET) into low-LET and high-LET. High-LET is considered to have a higher relative biological effectiveness (RBE)...
