Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To implement long-term manned space mission including future lunar and Martian missions, it is important to understand their radiation environments and biological effects of them. Here, we tried basic investigations for the simulations of lunar and Martian surfaces and interplanetary space environments at the external exposure unit of the international space station (ISS). The first study is the estimation of cosmic-ray doses using Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System (PHITS). PHITS revealed the quantitative and qualitative differences between their environments. The Japan module Kibo of ISS allows us to measure locomotion of C. elegans. Secondly, we demonstrated a new end point of locomotion and possible involvement of autophagy on effects of heavy ion exposure in C. elegans. Lastly, we studied the combined effects of radiation and hyperoxia in C. elegans, and surprisingly, the combined treatment resulted in lifespan extension.
