Mechanisms of spinal motoneurons survival in rats under simulated hypogravity on earth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It was previously shown that different cell types in vivo and in vitro may die via apoptosis under weightlessness conditions in space as well as in simulated hypogravity on the Earth.

3D Body Center of Mass at the Workplace under Hypogravity

open access: yes, 2023
The center of mass dynamics of human seated posture in a work environment under hypogravity (0<g<1) have rarely been investigated and it remains to be accomplished. The present study determined the difference in the body system of 32 participants working under simulated 1/6g (Moon) and 1g (Earth) for comparison reason using static

Potential targets for skeletal muscle impairment by hypogravity: basic characterization of resting ionic conductances and mechanical threshold of rat fast- and slow-twitch muscle fibers

open access: yes, 1998
Prolonged hypogravity such as during space flights affects skeletal muscle function by inducing postural changes as well as reduced muscle strength and locomotion capacity.

A comparison between the 2010 and 2005 basic life support guidelines during simulated hypogravity and microgravity

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundCurrent 2010 terrestrial (1Gz) CPR guidelines have been advocated by space agencies for hypogravity and microgravity environments, but may not be feasible. The aims of this study were to (1) evaluate rescuer performance over 1.5 min of external

Gravitational unloading induces an anti-angiogenic phenotype in human microvascular endothelial cells

open access: yes, 2008
Creating conditions similar to those occurring during exposure of cells to microgravity modulates endothelial functions. We have previously demonstrated that human macrovascular endothelial cells in simulated hypogravity proliferate faster than controls,

Mechanisms of spinal motoneurons survival in rats under simulated hypogravity on earth

open access: yes, 2020
It was previously shown that different cell types in vivo and in vitro may die via apoptosis under weightlessness conditions in space as well as in simulated hypogravity on the Earth.

Comparison of excitability parameters and sodium channel behavior of fast- and slow-twitch rat skeletal muscles for the study of the effects of hindlimb suspension, a model of hypogravity.

open access: yes, 1998
When mammals are constrained to hypogravity, their neuromuscular apparatus undergoes modifications which rend difficult postural maintenance and muscular activity upon the return to normal gravitational conditions.

Pulse Contour Methods to Estimate Cardiovascular Indices in Micro- And Hypergravity

open access: yes, 2013
Background: The importance of noninvasive health monitoring in space increased as a result of the long-duration missions on the International Space Station (ISS).
