Spaceflight Research Advances Study of Rare Pediatric Diseases
Spaceflight stress unmasks mitochondrial vulnerabilities Spaceflight exposes human induced pluripotent stem cells to microgravity and space radiation, creating stress conditions that may unmask disease-relevant vulnerabilities in mitochondrial and cardiac pathways. That is the focus of a review published in Precision Clinical Medicine. The study examines how these orbital environments affect mitochondrial function, cytoskeletal organization, oxidative … Read more
