Protein expression changes caused by spaceflight as measured for 18 Russian cosmonauts

Abstract The effects of spaceflight on human physiology is an increasingly studied field, yet the molecular mechanisms driving physiological changes remain unknown. With that in mind, this study was performed to obtain a deeper understanding of changes to the human proteome during space travel, by q...
