Spaceflight induces changes in gene expression profiles linked to insulin and estrogen

Spaceflight presents significant health concerns for astronauts. Insulin resistance, where the body doesn’t respond effectively to insulin, has been observed during space missions, with female astronauts showing better insulin sensitivity than males. Estrogen plays a vital role in regulating metabolism, protecting against conditions like insulin resistance, and maintaining bone and muscle mass. The interaction between insulin and estrogen signaling is crucial for managing health in space, particularly for regulating metabolic pathways and preventing related diseases.

Visualization Tools

Data Visualization

GeneLab’s latest software release includes a new visualization portal to interact with gene expression data from space-related omics experiments. The enhanced portal includes a new search interface, new plots and layout, and advanced settings to customize the plots.

RadLab

RadLab is a portal that aims to provide a single point of access to radiation telemetry data from multiple databases maintained by multiple space agencies.

Environmental Data App (EDA)

The Environmental Data App (EDA) is a portal where users can visualize and compare ISS (International Space Station) cabin environmental telemetry data and radiation data gathered from spaceflight missions.
