Simulated Microgravity and Radiation Exposure Effects on the Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Protein Synthesis
Long duration spaceflight missions out of lower earth orbit, back to the lunar surface, or possibly to Mars highlight the importance of preserving muscle mass and function. Muscle atrophy occurs within days of exposure to microgravity and prevailing thought is that a primary mechanism for muscle atr...
