Media ion composition controls regulatory and virulence response of Salmonella in spaceflight. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 The spaceflight environment is relevant to conditions encountered by pathogens during the course of infection and induces novel changes in microbial pathogenesis not observed using conventional methods. It is unclear how microbial cells sense spaceflight-

Coping in the final frontier: An intervention to reduce spaceflight-induced stress
Psychologica, 2019 Research in human spaceflight has extensively documented how microgravity environments, such as spaceflight across Low Earth Orbit (LEO), affects astronauts’ and Spaceflight Participants’ emotions. However, a more refined understanding of this topic will

Histone deacetylase HDA-4-mediated epigenetic regulation in space-flown C. elegans
npj Microgravity, 2021 Epigenetic changes during long-term spaceflight are beginning to be studied by NASA’s twin astronauts and other model organisms. Here, we evaluate the epigenetic regulation of gene expression in space-flown C.
