Detrimental effects of simulated microgravity on mast cell homeostasis and function

Exposure to microgravity causes significant alterations in astronauts’ immune systems during spaceflight; however, it is unknown whether microgravity affects mast cell homeostasis and activation. Here we show that microgravity negatively regulates the survival and effector function of mast cells. Mu...
