Simulated microgravity compromises mouse oocyte maturation by disrupting meiotic spindle organization and inducing cytoplasmic blebbing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In the present study, we discovered that mouse oocyte maturation was inhibited by simulated microgravity via disturbing spindle organization. We cultured mouse oocytes under microgravity condition simulated by NASA's rotary cell culture system, examined ...

Intestinal long non-coding RNAs in response to simulated microgravity stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important in regulating the response to environmental stresses in organisms. In this study, we used Caenorhabditis elegans as an animal model to determine the functions of intestinal lncRNAs in regulating response to ...

VDR regulates simulated microgravity-induced atrophy in C2C12 myotubes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Muscle wasting is a major problem leading to reduced quality of life and higher risks of mortality and various diseases. Muscle atrophy is caused by multiple conditions in which protein degradation exceeds its synthesis, including disuse, malnutrition ...

Planarians Sense Simulated Microgravity and Hypergravity [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2014
Planarians are flatworms, which belong to the phylumPlatyhelminthes.They have been a classical subject of study due to their amazing regenerative ability, which relies on the existence of adult totipotent stem cells. Nowadays they are an emerging model system in the field of developmental, regenerative, and stem cell biology.

Transcriptomic Signature of the Simulated Microgravity Response in Caenorhabditis elegans and Comparison to Spaceflight Experiments

open access: yesCells, 2023
Given the growing interest in human exploration of space, it is crucial to identify the effects of space conditions on biological processes. Here, we analyze the transcriptomic response of Caenorhabditis elegans to simulated microgravity and observe the ...

Responses of Haloarchaea to Simulated Microgravity [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2011
Various effects of microgravity on prokaryotes have been recognized in recent years, with the focus on studies of pathogenic bacteria. No archaea have been investigated yet with respect to their responses to microgravity. For exposure experiments on spacecrafts or on the International Space Station, halophilic archaea (haloarchaea) are usually embedded
