  • Title: Changes in muscles accompanying non-weight-bearing and weightlessness.
    Author: Tischler ME, Henriksen EJ, Jaspers SR, Jacob S, Kirby C.
    Journal: Adv Myochem; 1989; 2():325-38. PubMed ID: 11540913.
    Abstract:
    Results of hindlimb suspension and space flight experiments with rats examine the effects of weightlessness simulation, weightlessness, and delay in postflight recovery of animals. Parameters examined were body mass, protein balance, amino acid metabolism, glucose and glycogen metabolism, and hormone levels. Tables show metabolic responses to unweighting of the soleus muscle.
