Weightlessness or microgravity of spaceflight induces bone loss due in part to decreased bone formation by unknown mechanisms. Due to difficulty in performing experiments in space, several ground-based simulators such as the Rotating Wall Vessel (RWV) and Random Positioning Machine (RPM) have become critical venues to continue studying space biology. However, these simulators have not been systematically compared to each other or to mechanical stimulating models. Here, we hypothesized that expos ...[more]
