Spaceflight induces oxidative stress and disrupts normal cell cycle regulation. This study examined gene expression changes in response to spaceflight exposure. Results showed significant alterations in antioxidant defense systems and cell cycle control mechanisms, highlighting potential health risks and the need for protective interventions during space missions.

Spaceflight exposure resulted in significant modulation of oxidative stress response genes and cell cycle regulators. Key antioxidant enzymes showed altered expression patterns during and after spaceflight. The study identified potential biomarkers for spaceflight-induced oxidative stress. Cell cycle checkpoint genes were downregulated, suggesting increased vulnerability to DNA damage. These molecular changes may contribute to long-term health risks associated with space travel.
