Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) deficiency accelerates fast fibre type transition in soleus muscle during space flight
Hayashi et al. report on the effect of space flight on muscle mass, fibre size and type, composition and gene signalling of muscle in WT and Nrf2-KO mice. Their results demonstrate a key role of NRF2 in maintaining the slow-type fibres of soleus muscle during space flight and in microgravity environ...
