    Cellular and Molecular Responses to Gravitational Force-Triggered Stress in Cells of the Immune System

    Sensitivity of the human immune system to microgravity has been supposed since the first Apollo missions and was demonstrated during several space missions in the past. In vitro experiments demonstrated that c...

    Stability of gene expression in human T cells in different gravity environments is clustered in chromosomal region 11p15.4

    In the last decades, a plethora of in vitro studies with living human cells contributed a vast amount of knowledge about cellular and molecular effects of microgravity. Previous studies focused mostly on the i...
