Microarray Profile of Gene Expression during Osteoclast Differentiation in...
Microgravity leads to a 10-15% loss of bone mass in astronauts during space flight. Osteoclast is the multinucleated bone resorbing cell. In this study we used NASA developed... -
Comparison of gene expression profiles of normal human bronchial epithelial...
The experiment is part of a project to study DNA repair process after ionizing radiation in organotypic 3-dimentional human bronchial epithlial cell culture. Human bronchial... -
Transcription profiling of Drosophila exposed to a levitation magnet for...
Drosophila samples were exposed to the levitation magnet inside a 25mm diameter tubes with 3 ml of yeast-based Drosophila food in the bottom and a chamber of only 5 mm of height... -
Effect of simulated microgravity on E. coli K12 MG1655 growth and gene expression
This study demonstrates simulated microgravity effects on E. coli K 12 MG1655 when grown on LB medium supplemented with glycerol. The results imply that E. coli readily... -
Transcription profiling of rat to study the effect of hindlimb unloading on...
A recent physiological study established that hindlimb unloading of rats at 3 and 7 weeks inhibits healing of injured ligaments resulting in a badly aligned discontinuous... -
Expression Data from International C.elegans Experiment 1st
The effect of microgravity on gene expression in C.elegans was comprehensively analysed by DNA microarray. This is the first DNA microarray analysis for C.elegans grown under... -
DNA copy number analysis from mice with radiation-induced acute myeloid leukemia
Certain mouse strains such as CBA C3H and RFM have high incidence of radiation-induced acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The data in this series wer generated by using spleen DNA... -
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... -
Expression data from SPHINX (SPaceflight of Huvec: an INtegrated eXperiment)
Changes in the physical environment modulate cell responses and may lead to the impairment or even failure of tissue function as a result of mechanotransduction processes. It... -
Gene responses in mouse brain to long-term exposure to microgravity
The spaceflight experiment was carried out using male C57BL/10J mice (8 weeks old at launch). Wild type mice (n=3) were launched by Space Shuttle Discovery and housed on the... -
IMR90 bystander experiment 0.5 Gy alpha particle
The existence of a radiation bystander effect in which non-irradiated cells respond to signals from irradiated cells is well established. It raises concerns for the... -
IMR90 radiation bystander time-course experiment 0.5Gy alpha particle
The radiation bystander effect is an important component of the overall biological response of tissues and organisms to ionizing radiation. Little is known about the... -
Radiation responses in peripheral white blood cells of smokers and non-smokers
Understanding the possible impact of potential confounding factors is necessary for any approach to radiation biodosimetry. Potential confounding factors have not been fully... -
Bacillus subtilis spores PROTECT experiment Space-exposed and Mars-exposed...
Because of their ubiquity and resistance to spacecraft decontamination bacterial spores are considered likely potential forward contaminants on robotic missions to Mars. Thus it... -
Bystander response to 2.5 Gy of protons in a human 3-dimensional skin model...
Bystander mechanisms that originate in the areas surrounding a tissue damage presumably play an important role participating in wound healing and tissue remodeling. Thus... -
MESSAGE 2 space experiment with Rhodospirillum rubrum S1H
R. rubrum S1H inoculated on solid agar rich media was sent to the ISS in October 2003 (MESSAGE-part 2 experiment). After 10 days flight R. rubrum cultures returned back to... -
Non-targeted effects of low dose ionizing radiation act via TGF-beta to...
This is a genome-wide approach to identifying genes persistently induced in the mouse mammary gland by acute whole body low dose ionizing radiation (10cGy) 1 and 4 weeks after... -
Response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 to low shear modeled microgravity
Anticipating the risk for infectious disease during space exploration and habitation is a critical factor to ensure safety health and performance of the crewmembers. As a... -
