Exposure to space-flight environment, notably microgravity and radiations, can induce changes in living systems. Life in space increases the amount of stress hormones, insulin resistance, altered musculoskeletal system structure and function, inflammation and mitochondrial function with increased oxidative stress (Biolo et al., 2003; Zhang et al., 2007; Shatten et al., 2001).
