Impact of spaceflight on gene expression in the thymus
Study overview
What the record says
The thymus undergoes atrophy during spaceflight. In this study, we analyzed gene expression of the thymus of mice on board International space station to elucidate molecular aspects of the thymic atrophy by spaceflight.
