RhoGTPase stimulation is associated with strontium chloride treatment to counter simulated microgravity-induced changes in multipotent cell commitment
Countering Bone Loss in Space A chemical element naturally found for instance in seafood or grains, could counter bone loss from long-term spaceflight. Alain Guignandon and colleagues from the Université de Lyon à St-Etienne in France exposed multipotent embryonic fibroblasts to microgravity conditi...

Countering Bone Loss in Space A chemical element naturally found for instance in seafood or grains, could counter bone loss from long-term spaceflight.
