Optimized combination methods for exploring novel space environment-responsive genes and their roles: insights from space-flown <i>C. elegans</i> and their implications for astronauts
This study provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms behind spaceflight-induced health risks and highlights potential mechanistic targets for preventive measures. The findings suggest a conserved genetic response to space conditions between <i>C. elegans</i> and astronauts, offering valuable targets for mitigating the health risks of space exploration.
