Virtual reality as a countermeasure for astronaut motion sickness during simulated post-flight water landings by Lonner, T. L., Allred, A. R., Bonarrigo, L., Gopinath, A., Smith, K., Kravets, V., Groen, E. L., Oman, C., DiZio, P., Lawson, B. D., Clark, T. K.

“…We tested the countermeasure’s effectiveness at mitigating motion sickness symptoms at the end of a ground-based reentry analog: approximately 1 h of 2Gx centrifugation followed by up to 1 h of wave-like motion. Secondarily, we explored differences in vestibular-mediated balance performance between the two conditions. …”

[Retracted] Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor β/δ induces myogenesis by modulating myostatin activity by Bonala, Sabeera, Lokireddy, Sudarsanareddy, Arigela, Harikumar, Teng, Serena, Wahli, Walter, Sharma, Mridula, McFarlane, Craig, Kambadur, Ravi

“…Classically, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor β/δ (PPARβ/δ) function was thought to be restricted to enhancing adipocyte differentiation and development of adipose-like cells from other lineages. However, recent studies have revealed a critical role for PPARβ/δ during skeletal muscle growth and regeneration. …”
