Winer et al Astroimmunoology The effects of spaceflight and its associated stressors on the immune system (1).pdfA Winer Lab Foundation: How Spaceflight Impacts the Immune System
This article, written by the Winer Lab at the Buck Institute, reviews how spaceflight stressors like microgravity and radiation disrupt the immune system. It is especially relevant to my MARC work because it highlights actin cytoskeleton reorganization as one way microgravity weakens immune cell function. Since my project looks at how gene knockouts affect actin cytoskeleton formation in microgravity, this paper gives important background for why cytoskeletal stability matters in space biology and aging research.
