Greetings From GeneLab!
It’s been a busy few months on the project: new data, upgraded metadata viewer, and conferences.
Investigations Added!
GeneLab added 13 new investigations and updated two investigations in the GeneLab Data System (GLDS) for a total of 116 investigations.
- Transient gene expression profile changes of confluent human fibroblast cells in spaceflight
- STS-135 liver metabolomics
- Biological and metabolomics response in STS-135 space-flown mouse skin
- Effect of microgravity on an animal-bacteria symbiosis
- Expression data from International C. elegansExperiment 1st (ICE-FIRST)
- The Role of PTHrP in osteoblast response to microgravity: implications for Osteoporosis Development
- Microgravity effect on C. elegans N2/VC (CERISE, 4 days)
- The influence of simulated microgravity on the proteome of Daphnia magna
- Global gene expression analysis highlights microgravity – sensitive key genes in soleus and EDL of 30 days space-flown mice
- Gene expression profile changes due to bleomycin-induced DNA damage in human fibroblasts in space
- Streptococcus mutans differential gene expression in response to simulated microgravity
- Gene expression profiling in human fibroblast after low-LET irradiation
- Delayed cardiomyocyte response to total body particle radiation exposure – identification of regulatory gene network [proton]
Updated Investigations
- RR-1 (Rodent Research-1) biobanked tissue studies
- Proteomics and transcriptomics analysis of Arabidopsis seedlings in microgravity
Metadata – ISACreator tool
The best way to look at GLDS metadata is to use the ISACreator tool. GeneLab has added the latest Java-based ISACreator version 1.7.9 tool, bundled with the GeneLab-specific configuration for the user community to download. As described on our Data Systems submission page, the tool is available for direct download here: ISACreator-1.7.10-GeneLab.zip (44.4MB).
GeneLab at Conferences
GeneLab and Space Biology representatives from NASA Ames Research Center will cohost exhibit booths or make presentations at several upcoming conferences.
- May 9-12, Toronto, Canada
International Society for Biological and Environmental Research
Invited talk: The NASA Ames Life Sciences Data Archive: Biobanking for the Final Frontier
Jon Rask, Kaushik Chakravarty, Alison J. French, Sungshin Choi, and Helen J. Stewart - June 1-5, New Orleans, LA
American Society for Microbiology - June 24-28, Honolulu, HI
American Society of Plant Biologists

Publications Citing GeneLab
We would like to know! Please send us your citation so that we can include it in our metrics and post it on the GeneLab website.
Sincerely,
The GeneLab Team
