The Impact of Altered Gravity and Vibration on Endothelial Cells During a Parabolic Flight

Background: Endothelial cells (EC) cultured under altered gravity conditions show a cytoskeletal disorganization and differential gene expression (short-term effects), as well as apoptosis in adherently growing EC or formation of tubular 3D structures (long-term effects). Methods: Investigating shor...
