Beschreibung:
Cultures of human lymphocytes exposed in microgravity to the mitogen concanavalin A showed less than 3 percent of the activation of ground controls. This result supports the hypothesis, based on simulations at low g and experiments at high g, that microgravity depresses whereas high gravity enhances cell proliferation rates. The effects of gravity are particularly strong in cells undergoing differentiation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cogoli, A -- Tschopp, A -- Fuchs-Bislin, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jul 13;225(4658):228-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6729481" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
