The Impact of Simulated Weightlessness on Endothelium-Dependent Angiogenesis and the Role of Caveolae/Caveolin-1

Background/Aims: The potential role of caveolin-1 in modulating angiogenesis in microgravity environment is unexplored. Methods: Using simulated microgravity by clinostat, we measured the expressions and interactions of caveolin-1 and eNOS in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Results: We found...
