AbstractSpaceflight poses a unique set of challenges to humans and the hostile spaceflight environment can induce a wide range of increased health risks, including dermatological issues. The biology driving the frequency of skin issues in astronauts is currently not well understood.

AbstractSpaceflight induces molecular, cellular, and physiological shifts in astronauts and poses myriad biomedical challenges to the human body, which are becoming increasingly relevant as more humans venture into space1-6. Yet, current frameworks for aerospace medicine are nascent and lag far behind advancements in precision medicine on Earth, underscoring the need for rapid development of space medicine databases, tools, and protocols.

AbstractIt is now widely recognised that the environment in space activates a diverse set of genes involved in regulating fundamental cellular pathways. This includes the activation of genes associated with blood homeostasis and erythropoiesis, with a particular emphasis on those involved in globin chain production.

AbstractSpaceflight induces an immune response in astronauts. To better characterize this effect, we generated single-cell, multi-ome, cell-free RNA (cfRNA), biochemical, and hematology data for the SpaceX Inspiration4 (I4) mission crew. We found that 18 cytokines/chemokines related to inflammation, aging, and muscle homeostasis changed after spaceflight.

One of the functions of the skin is to serve as a physical barrier. It keeps water in the body and prevents entry of foreign material, including chemicals, pathogens, allergens, and toxins, into the body. To perform this function, the skin comprises a unique outer layer called the stratum corneum, which consists of densely packed dead cells called corneocytes (Fig 1, A). The corneocytes are rich in proteins and are dispersed in a lipid-rich phase.

Section snippetsOntogeny of TRM cells in the skinAs discussed later in this review, whether TRM arise from pluripotent effector T cells that enter tissues in response to the local environment and/or from a specific subset of circulating T cells in blood remains to be fully elucidated.
