(2022)
Abstract:
Chronic airway inflammatory and infectious respiratory diseases are the most common medical respiratory conditions, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Vitamin D (1,25(OH)2D3) deficiency has ...
Simulated Microgravity Influences Immunity-Related Biomarkers in Lung Cancer
(2022-12)
Abstract:
Microgravity is a novel strategy that may serve as a complementary tool to develop future cancer therapies. In lung cancer, the influence of microgravity on cellular processes and the migratory capacity of cells ...
