Study Reveals Long Stay in Space Causes Brain Damage

During this time the scientists conducted numerous studies to determine the impact of health that occurs in humans, if you’re in outer space in a fairly long period of time. Adverse effects on the body during a long stay in space it was previously it has been known for some time. Research indicates the presence of negative changes including muscle atrophy, decreased bone mass, eyesight deteriorate, and the bacterial flora that changes in the gut.

It is shown through research carried out against five Russian cosmonauts who had lived on the International Space Station (ISS). Citing the Science Daily, Wednesday (13/10/2021) in a study published in the journal JAMA Neurology, researchers took blood samples from the cosmonaut 20 days before their departure to the ISS.

Age cosmonaut average of 49 years. After they return to Earth, the blood sample taken on advanced three occasions, namely one day, one week, and about three weeks after landing. The next five biomarkers for brain damage were analyzed. They are the neurofilament light (NFL), glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), total tau (T-tau), and two protein beta amyloid. For the three biomarkers, namely the NFL, GFAP, and the protein beta amyloid turns concentration increased significantly after the visit outer space. Changes are also visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain after a trip to outer space. “This is the first time evidence of a real brain cell damage documented in a blood test after space flight. This should be explored and carried out preventive if space travel becomes more common in the future,” said Henrik Zetterberg, one of the authors of this study. Further, the researchers call if need more studies to find out why the damage that appears.

Zetterberg was currently being discussed advanced studies with fellow researchers, as well as the research institute of aerospace national and international. “If we can sort out what’s causing brain damage, biomarkers that we have developed can help you find the best way to solve the problem,” said Zetterberg.
