Studies conducted in real Space and in ground-based microgravity analog systems (MAS) have demonstrated changes in numerous lymphocyte functions. In this investigation we explored whether the observed functional changes in lymphocytes in MAS are associated with changes in gene expression. NASA-devel

## Abstract ## Objective Pulmonary fibrosis is a major cause of death in scleroderma patients. Previous studies have shown an increase in CD8+ T cells in the lungs of scleroderma patients. In the present study, we sought to determine whether activated CD8+ T cells contribute to pulmonary fibrosis
The differential expression of CD45 isoforms has been suggested as a marker for stages of post-thymicT cell development, that is, CD45RA+CD45ROP T cells and CD45RA-CD45ROf Tcells are supposed to be virgin and memory cells respectively. Recently, several adhesion molecules have been shown to be up-re
