Cultures of human lymphocytes exposed in microgravity to the mitogen concanavalin A showed less than 3 percent of the activation of ground controls. This result supports the hypothesis, based on simulations at low g and experiments at high g, that microgravity depresses whereas high gravity enhances cell proliferation rates. The effects of gravity are particularly strong in cells undergoing differentiation.
在微重力环境下暴露于促细胞分裂剂伴刀豆球蛋白A的人类淋巴细胞培养物，其激活程度不到地面对照的3%。这一结果支持了基于低重力模拟和高重力实验得出的假设，即微重力会抑制而高重力会提高细胞增殖速率。重力对正在分化的细胞影响尤为强烈。
