Differential behaviour of normal, transformed and Fanconi's anemia lymphoblastoid cells to modeled microgravity

Abstract

In the light of the reported results microgravity should be regarded as an harmful condition either when considering normal as well as transformed cells. Modeled microgravity and space-based technology are interesting tools in the biomedicine laboratory and offer an original, useful and unique approach in the study of cellular biochemistry and in the regulation of metabolic pathways.
