Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed space stay experiments using zebrafish which are aquatic organisms for analyzing microgravity environment-dependent skeletal muscle atrophy. As a results of transcriptome analysis (comprehensive analysis of gene expression) using a next-generation sequencing, the variation was detected in a number of gene expression in skeletal muscle of space stay zebrafish. This result indicates that the skeletal muscle of zebrafish is affected by microgravity environment similar to that of terrestrial animals. Compared with the variation of gene expression on movement suppression and aging which are generally known to induce skeletal muscle atrophy, there are many differences in variation of gene expression on microgravity environment.
