Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Assessment of cellular response in human without invasive sampling combined with ultra-highthroughput sequencing technology should provide new insights on gene regulation in response to environmental stress. In this project, we intend to perform whole-genome profiling of blood-circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and RNA (cRNA) to screen biomarkers for human stress response against space environment. The result will provide basis for non-invasive, quantitative and specific measurement of environmental stress in human. Such biomarkers are essential for monitoring human health during stay in space station and evaluation of countermeasures. This project also provides new insights, in non-biased, genome-wide scale, for understanding of biological responses against space radiation exposure and microgravity which induce symptoms related to aging.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

After specimen collection and coding, plasma will be isolated from blood. DNA and RNA will be extracted from plasma which contains extra-cellular DNA and RNA circulating in blood stream. For pre-flight samples, additional DNA will be extracted from blood clot which remains in the sampling tube after removal of plasma. This genomic DNA will be used to read reference DNA sequence. By comparing DNA sequence obtained from in-flight plasma DNA sample with reference DNA, presence of DNA damage can be detected during the in-flight and post-flight time course samples.
