We investigated differentially regulated genes in human Jurkat T lymphocytic cells in 20s and 5min microgravity and in hypergravity and compared expression profiles to identify... -
Synergistic effects of microgravity and space radiation (Nimblegen)
Space radiations and microgravity both could cause DNA damage in cells but the effects of microgravity on DNA damage response to space radiations are still controversial. A mRNA... -
RAD51 Interconnects Between DNA Replication DNA Repair and Immunity
RAD51 a multifunctional protein plays a central role in DNA replication and homologous recombination repair and is known to be involved in cancer development. We identified a... -
Microarray Analysis of Space-flown Murine Thymus Tissue
Microarray Analysis of Space-flown Murine Thymus Tissue Reveals Changes in Gene Expression Regulating Stress and Glucocorticoid Receptors. We used microarrays to detail the gene... -
Effects of a Closed Space Environment on Gene Expression in Hair Follicles...
In recent times long-term stay has become a common occurrence in the International Space Station (ISS). However adaptation to the space environment can sometimes pose... -
Proton irradiation augments the reduction in tumor progression observed with...
Proton irradiation is touted for its improved tumor targeting due to the physical advantages of ion beams for radiotherapy. Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that in... -
Microgravity effect on C. elegans N2/VC (CERISE 4 days)
Microgravity effect on C. elegans gene expression was analysed by whole genome microarray. The worms were cultivated under microgravity for 4 days in the Japanese Module of the... -
Action of microgravity on root development
Arabidopsis were grown on horizontal or vertical clinostat for 4 8 or 12 days. Seedlings on horizontal clinostat were in simulated microgravity and seedlings on vertical... -
Gene expression profiling in human fibroblast after low-LET irradiation
Exposure to radiation provokes cellular responses controlled in part by gene expression networks. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs which mostly regulate gene... -
Gene-expression profiling of Saccharomyces cerevisiae irradiated by high-LET...
Ionizing radiations are categorized by linear energy transfer (LET) into low-LET and high-LET. High-LET is considered to have a higher relative biological effectiveness (RBE)... -
Synergistic effects of space radiation and microgravity (miRNA WT and ced-1 mutant)
Space radiations and microgravity both could cause DNA damage in cells but the effects of microgravity on DNA damage response to space radiations are still controversial. A mRNA... -
