Spaceflight accelerates aging of human blood stem cells
Researchers from University of California San Diego Sanford Stem Cell Institute have discovered that spaceflight accelerates the aging of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), which are vital for blood and immune system health.
Spaceflight accelerates human stem cell aging, researchers find
Researchers from the University of California San Diego Sanford Stem Cell Institute have discovered that spaceflight accelerates the aging of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), which are vital for blood and immune system health.
A study led by the University of California in San Diego, United States, found that space flights accelerate the aging of human stem cells and hematopoietic progenitors, which are vital to the health of blood and the immune system. According to the results, stem cells lost part of their ability to produce new healthy cells, became more prone to DNA damage, and showed signs of faster aging at the ends of their chromosomes after space flight, all …
