Project description:Astronauts have been previously shown to exhibit decreased salivary lysozyme and increased dental calculus and gingival inflammation in response to space flight, host factors that could contribute to oral diseases such as caries and periodontitis. However, the specific physiological response of caries-causing bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans to space flight and/or ground-based simulated microgravity has not been extensively investigated. In this study, High Aspect Ratio Vessel (HARV) S. mutans simulated microgravity and normal gravity cultures were assessed for changes in metabolite and transcriptome profiles, H2O2 resistance, and competence in sucrose-containing biofilm media. Stationary phase S. mutans simulated microgravity cultures displayed increased killing by H2O2 compared to normal gravity control cultures, but competence was not affected. RNA-seq analysis revealed that expression of 153 genes was up-regulated ≥ 2-fold and 94 genes down-regulated ≥ 2-fold during simulated microgravity HARV growth. These included a number of genes located on extrachromosomal elements, as well as genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, translation, and stress responses. Collectively, these results suggest that growth under microgravity analog conditions promotes changes in S. mutans gene expression and physiology that may translate to an altered cariogenic potential of this organism during space flight missions.

Project description:Neural crest boundary cap cells were subjected to space flight and compared against controls not subjected to space conditions. The cells were not cultured in a cell incubator during space flight, so one control was the same cells kept outside incubator for the same time. One control was cells cultured during standard conditions. One control was subjected to short pulses of artificial microgravity on earth and one culture was subjected to artificial gravity in the same way as the cells in space.

Project description:R. rubrum S1H inoculated on solid minimal media was sent to the ISS in September 2006 (BASE-A experiment). After 10 days flight, R. rubrum cultures returned back to Earth. These cultures were then subjected to both transcriptomic and proteomic analysis and compared with the corresponding ground control. Whole-genome oligonucleotide microarray and high throughput proteomics, which offer the possibility to survey respectively the global transcriptional and translational response of an organism, were used to test the effect of space flight. Moreover, in an effort to identify a specific stress response of R. rubrum to space flight, ground simulation of space ionizing radiation and space gravity were performed under identical culture setup and growth conditions encountered during the actual space journey. This study is unique in combining the results from an actual space experiment with the corresponding space ionizing radiation and modeled microgravity ground simulations, which lead to a more solid dissection of the different factors contribution acting in space flight conditions. Total RNA was extracted from R. rubrum S1H grown after 10 days in space flight or after 10 days in simulated ionizing radiation or simulated microgravity. Each microarray slide contained 3 technical repeats.

Project description:Jurkat T cells have been fixated at different gravity conditions during the 4th Swiss Parabolic Flight Campaign (4SPFC). 1g inflight samples were generated by crosslinking 5 minutes prior to onset of the first parabola. Hypg samples were generated by crosslinking the samples at the end of the first hypergravity 1.8 g phase, 20 seconds after start of the parabola. µg/0g samples were generated by crosslinking the cells 20 seconds after the onset of microgravity during the first parabola. A ground control reference condition was generated by crosslinking cells that were stored inside the flight hardware but were not onboard during the flight.

Project description:Exposure to microgravity in low-Earth orbit (LEO) has been shown to affect human health. Post-flight brain imaging and studies of astronauts and mouse models suggest that microgravity may cause intracranial fluid shifts and possibly alter white and gray matter of the brain. To focus on the effects of microgravity on brain cells, we used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to produce three-dimensional (3D) human neural organoids as models of the nervous system. We studied iPSC-derived organoids from four individuals, including people with the neurological diseases primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) and non-symptomatic controls. We patterned the organoids toward cortical and dopaminergic fates representing regions of the brain affected by MS and PD, respectively. Microglia were generated from the same cell lines and integrated into a portion of the organoids. The organoids were maintained for a month in a novel static culture system on the International Space Station (ISS) and live samples were returned to Earth. The post-flight samples were evaluated using transcriptome analysis. Microglia-specific genes were detectable in the microglia-containing organoid cultures. Differential gene expression analyses of individual organoids cultured in LEO and on Earth suggest that cell proliferation was lower and neural cells were more mature in samples that were cultured in LEO. These experiments lay the groundwork for further studies, including long term studies to investigate the effects of microgravity on the brain.

Project description:Euglena gracilis is a unicellular freshwater flagellate, which uses the gravitational vector for orientation in the water column in the dark. This allows the cell to reach areas in the water column for reproduction and growth. How exactly the gravitational vector is perceived, and which intracellular pathways are involved in the signaling is not very well understood so far. In the past, parabolic flight campaigns were used to study the swimming behavior of Euglena gracilis under altered gravitational accelerations. It was shown that cells adapt their swimming direction very fast: in the dark under 1xg cell show negative gravitaxis, i.e. they move upwards in the water column of the experiment hardware and against the gravitational vector. With onset of the first hypergravity period of 1.8xg the precision of upward swimming increases slightly. This first hyper gravity lasts for only 20 seconds and is followed by 22 sec of microgravity. During this period no gravitational vector is perceived by the cells, therefore they lack a cue for orientation and move randomly in all direction. In the subsequent hyper gravity period of 1.8xg, which also lasts for 20 sec, cells direct their movement again and swim upwards. Over different parabolic flight campaigns and other experiments it was shown that this gravitactic behavior is linked to changes in membrane potential, calcium and cAMP concentration. However, due to the lack of genomic and transcriptomic data, it was so far not possible to link the differential movement to the abundance of distinct mRNA transcripts. In contrast, other model organisms, such as Arabidopsis thaliana, have been analyzed by means of gene expression with respect to the effects of altered gravitational accelerations. Also various human cell lines have shown to adapt their gene expression in dependence of the prevailing acceleration. With the recently published Euglena gracilis transcriptome, we now aimed at analyzing effects of altered acceleration on the gene expression in the flagellate. Therefore, Euglena gracilis samples were taken in the course of the 29th DLR parabolic flight campaign during parabola 1 and 31 (time difference of 2 hours and 30 additional parabolas). During both parabolas samples were fixed with TRIzol at 1xg just before onset of the first hyper gravity period, 20 sec into hyper gravity (1.8xg), 20 sec into microgravity (µg) and 20 sec into the last hypergravity period.
