Abstract

The SpaceX Inspiration4 mission provided a unique opportunity to study the impact of spaceflight on the human body. Biospecimen samples were collected from four crew members longitudinally before (Launch: L-92, L-44, L-3 days), during (Flight Day: FD1, FD2, FD3), and after (Return: R + 1, R + 45, R + 82, R + 194 days) spaceflight, spanning a total of 289 days across 2021-2022. The collection process included venous whole blood, capillary dried blood spot cards, saliva, urine, stool, body swabs, capsule swabs, SpaceX Dragon capsule HEPA filter, and skin biopsies. Venous whole blood was further processed to obtain aliquots of serum, plasma, extracellular vesicles and particles, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In total, 2,911 sample aliquots were shipped to our central lab at Weill Cornell Medicine for downstream assays and biobanking. This paper provides an overview of the extensive biospecimen collection and highlights their processing procedures and long-term biobanking techniques, facilitating future molecular tests and evaluations.As such, this study details a robust framework for obtaining and preserving high-quality human, microbial, and environmental samples for aerospace medicine in the Space Omics and Medical Atlas (SOMA) initiative, which can aid future human spaceflight and space biology experiments.

摘要

SpaceX 灵感 4 号任务提供了一个独特的机会来研究太空飞行对人体的影响。生物样本分别于发射前(发射:L-92、L-44、L-3 天)、飞行期间(飞行日:FD1、FD2、FD3)和飞行后(返回:R+1、R+45、R+82、R+194 天)从四名机组人员身上采集,跨越 2021 年至 2022 年共 289 天。采集过程包括静脉全血、毛细血管干血斑卡、唾液、尿液、粪便、身体拭子、胶囊拭子、SpaceX 龙胶囊高效空气过滤器和皮肤活检。静脉全血进一步处理,获得血清、血浆、细胞外囊泡和颗粒以及外周血单核细胞等分装样本。总共采集了 2911 份样本并运往威尔康奈尔医学院我们的中心实验室,用于下游分析和生物库存储。本文概述了广泛的生物样本采集,并重点介绍了其处理程序和长期生物库存储技术,为未来的分子测试和评估提供了便利。因此,本研究详细介绍了一个在太空基因组学和医学图谱(SOMA)计划中获得和保存高质量人类、微生物和环境样本的强大框架,该计划可以帮助未来的人类太空飞行和空间生物学实验。
