Cellular metabolism after exposure to s-microgravity. (a) Glucose levels were measured in the growth medium of cells grown at 1 g (Ctr) or exposed to s-microgravity (RPM) and are expressed as the ratio between glucose levels and the number of cells at each time point. Values are presented as means ± SEM, n = 3. *p < 0.05 compared with the corresponding Ctr. (b) Lactate levels were measured in cell medium from cells grown under the same conditions as described in (a) and are expressed as the ratio between lactate levels and the number of cells at each time point. Values are presented as means ± SEM, n = 3. ***p < 0.001 compared with the corresponding Ctr.
