Effects of Spaceflight on Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived...
With extended stays aboard the International Space Station (ISS) becoming commonplace there is a need to better understand the effects of microgravity on cardiac function. We... -
Plasticity of the human IgM repertoire in response to a long-term spaceflight
Immune dysregulation is among the main adverse outcomes of spaceflight. Despite its crucial role in host protection effects on the human antibody repertoire are unknown.... -
Muscle atrophy osteoporosis prevention in hibernating mammals
Physical inactivity decreases the mechanical load on the skeleton which when prolonged leads to losses of muscle strength and bone mass in humans and most mammalian species.... -
Temporal dynamics of the gut microbiota in people sharing a confined...
The MARS500 project the longest ground-based space simulation ever provided us with a unique opportunity to trace the crew microbiota over 520 days of isolated confinement such... -
