Project description:The increasing availability of flights on suborbital rockets creates new avenues for the study of spaceflight effects on biological systems, in particular the transitions between hypergravity and microgravity. This paper presents an initial comparison of the responses of Arabidopsis thaliana to suborbital and atmospheric parabolic flights as an important step toward characterizing these emerging suborbital platforms and their effects on biology. Transcriptomic profiling of the response of the Arabidopsis ecotype Wassilewskija (WS) to the aggregate spaceflight experiences in the Blue Origin New Shepard and Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo rockets revealed that the transcriptomic load induced by flight differed greatly between the two flights, yet was biologically related to traditional parabolic flight responses. The sku5 skewing mutant and 14-3-3κ:GFP regulatory protein overexpression lines each showed altered intra-platform responses compared to WS in the Blue Origin and parabolic flights, respectively. An additional parabolic flight using the F-104 Starfighter showed that the response of 14-3-3κ:GFP to flight was modulated in a similar manner to the WS line. Despite the differing genotypes, experimental workflows, flight profiles and platforms, alteration of gene expression remodeling central metabolic processes was commonly observed as a response to the flights. The processes included carbon and nitrogen metabolism, branched-chain amino acid degradation, and hypoxic responses. The timing and directionality of differentially-expressed genes involved in the conserved pathways differed among the platforms. The data presented herein highlight the potential for various suborbital platforms to contribute insights into biological responses to spaceflight, and further suggest that in-flight fixation during suborbital experiments will provide insights into responses to each phase of flight.

Project description:Microgravity is one of the most important features in spaceflight. Previous evidence has shown that significant changes to the musculoskeletal and immune systems occurred under microgravity. The present study was undertaken to explore the change in protein abundance in human colon colorectal cells that were incubated for 48 or 72 h either in normal conditions and µG simulated conditions. The comparative proteomic method based on the 18O labeling technique was applied to investigate the up-regulated proteins and down-regulated proteins in SH-SY5Y under simulated microgravity.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Understanding physiologic reactions to weightlessness is an indispensable requirement for safe human space missions. While adaptations of human organ systems in response to weightlessness have been described in former studies, their molecular background needs further elucidation. OBJECTIVE: The study aims to analyse changes in the expression of circulating miRNAs in serum in response to gravitational changes induced by parabolic flight as a spaceflight analogue. METHODS: Eight healthy volunteers (age: 25.4 years, male: 4, female: 4) were included. Each subject underwent 31 short-term phases of weightlessness and hypergravity induced by parabolic flight. At different time points (baseline, 1 hour after parabolic flight, and 24 hours parabolic flight), venous blood was withdrawn. Analysis of circulating miRNAs in serum was conducted by means of next generation sequencing. RESULTS: In total, 213 miRNAs were robustly detected by small RNA sequencing in all 24 samples. 4 miRNAs (mir-941, mir-24-3p, mir-486-5p, mir-223-3p) evidenced a significant change in expression after adjusting for multiple testing. mir-941 and mir-24-3p showed a significant decrease 24 hours after parabolic flight compared to 1 hour after parabolic flight. Contrary, mir-486-5p showed a significant increase 24 hours after parabolic flight compared to 1 hour after parabolic flight. Of note, mir-223-3p showed a significant decrease 24 hours after parabolic flight compared to baseline values and values at 1 hour after parabolic flight. A target network analysis identified genes of the p53 signaling pathway and the cell cycle highly enriched among the targets of the four microRNAs. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest cellular adaption to gravitational changes by means of weightlessness and hypergravity already at the transcriptional level. Based on our results, we suggest a change in cell cycle regulation as potential explanation for adaptational changes observed in space missions.

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.
