Meristematic cell proliferation and ribosome biogenesis are decoupled in diamagnetically levitated Arabidopsis seedlings (2013)
Journal Article
Manzano, A. I., Larkin, O. J., Dijkstra, C. E., Anthony, P., Davey, M. R., Eaves, L., …Medina, F. J. (2013). Meristematic cell proliferation and ribosome biogenesis are decoupled in diamagnetically levitated Arabidopsis seedlings. BMC Plant Biology, 13, Article 124. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2229-13-124

Background: Cell growth and cell proliferation are intimately linked in the presence of Earth’s gravity, but are decoupled under the microgravity conditions present in orbiting spacecraft. New technologies to simulate microgravity conditions for long...

Suboptimal evolutionary novel environments promote singular altered gravity responses of transcriptome during Drosophila metamorphosis (2013)
Journal Article
Herranz, R., Larkin, O. J., Hill, R. J., Lopez-Vidriero, I., van Loon, J. J., & Medina, F. J. (2013). Suboptimal evolutionary novel environments promote singular altered gravity responses of transcriptome during Drosophila metamorphosis. BMC Evolutionary Biology, 13(June), Article 10. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2148-13-133

Background Previous experiments have shown that the reduced gravity aboard the International Space Station (ISS) causes important alterations in Drosophila gene expression. These changes were shown to be intimately linked to environmental space-fl...
