失重或模拟失重环境对肿瘤细胞影响的研究进展

Research Advance in Effects of Weightlessness or Simulated Weightlessness on Tumor Cells

失重环境是地面上一种不多见的现象,在失重条件下,细胞间及细胞内部各结构间的相互作用消失或减弱。利用失重模型研究肿瘤,观察肿瘤细胞在失重环境中的生物学特性和分子表达,可以为解释肿瘤发生、发展以及诊断和治疗肿瘤开辟一条新途径。

Weightless environment is a rare phenomenon on the ground where the interactions among cells and internal cellular structures disappear or become weakened. Studies on the biological features and mo- lecular expression of tumors cells in weightlessness condition may provide new clues to the tumor initiation, process, diagnosis, and therapy.
