Biology (Basel). 2021 Jun 22;10(7):570. doi: 10.3390/biology10070570.

Abstract

As we observe an increase in muscle mass by lifting weights or a significant mass loss in musculoskeletal tissues of astronauts returning after a stay in space, we note the manifestation of the mechanism of mechanotransduction that is central to mechanobiology [...].
