Rapid coupling between gravitational forces and the transcriptome in human myelomonocytic U937 cells

Abstract The gravitational force has been constant throughout Earth’s evolutionary history. Since the cell nucleus is subjected to permanent forces induced by Earth’s gravity, we addressed the question, if gene expression homeostasis is constantly shaped by the gravitational force on Earth. We there...
