Space Flight-Promoted Insulin Resistance as a Possible Disruptor of Wound Healing

Space Flight-Promoted Insulin Resistance as a Possible Disruptor of Wound Healing

During space flight, especially when prolonged, exposure to microgravity results in a number of pathophysiological changes such as bone loss, muscle atrophy, cardiovascular and metabolic changes and impaired wound healing, among others. Interestingly, chronic low-grade inflammation and insulin resis...
