Unraveling the Mysteries of Cancer in Zero Gravity with Dr. Catriona Jamieson 🧬 With the help of a $5 million grant, Dr. Catriona Jamieson of the Sanford Stem Cell Institute at @UCSanDiego, in collaboration with @NASA, launched the world's first integrated space stem cell orbital research lab, ISSCOR, aboard @SpaceX CRS-24 and the recent @AxiomSpace-3 mission. The findings? Stem cells age differently in space, losing their functional potential. Even more startling, tumor growth triples in just 10 days in space - a process that would take a year to a decade on Earth. But the breakthroughs don't stop there. Dr. Jamieson's lab is developing a cancer kill-switch drug, rebecsinib, which has shown promising results against triple-negative breast cancer organoids in space. This marks the first time space has been utilized in the development of a cancer drug, a milestone not just for the space and healthcare industries, but for the entire human race. What was once considered a hopeless situation now brims with newfound hope. This is why we at Via Space Holdings are passionate about what we do. Space holds immense possibilities for our future. And there's no better time than now to venture beyond, and potentially save lives in the process 🚀 #Space #Health #BioTechnology #Medicine #StemCell #SpaceExploration #Innovation #Research #Future #NewSpace #InvestmentReimagined www.viaspaceholdings.com Source: https://lnkd.in/eQXtYA58

Cancer in space: How does microgravity affect tumor growth and its characteristics? With an increasing number of space missions and declining costs, we will witness an exponential increase in cosmic scientific research in the coming years. This development is absolutely fascinating, as it opens new horizons and gives rise to new branches of industry.

One of the many benefits of being part of a firm focused on multiple verticals are the opportunities to find the intersections that occur. So much to be gained from moving outside the silo of your own area to learn from others. Aerospace and healthcare are one of those intersections.

Some of you are still asking the question: "Why invest in space and not, for example, in cancer treatment?" What if investing in space IS an investment in cancer treatment? There are studies that indicate a connection between the effect of accelerated aging of cells in a state of microgravity and the multiplying effect of some types of cancer treatments. If so, then perhaps space is not only a direction for business development, but also - considering the increasing number of cancer cases globally - our destiny and salvation? https://lnkd.in/d2eQ9ikh

What can vision do? Think the answer is right there. It sure is fascinating when a load of business opportunities are around us and someone decides I’d rather invest in space travel. The aspirstions of a leader and entrepreneur driving a vision of such extraordinary proportions. Good to see nature’s beauty on earth, great to get a glimpse of the beauty from top of it. While aspiring for such great vision is needed, I don’t think a second and forget that’s possible because of the strong platform Richard Branson created with his Virgin brand. And while I do carry such passions, I’ll be honest to keep my efforts in creating a strong platform to stand on first. #entrepreneurship #leadership #startup #blitzfa #indusvale #business #spacetech #innovation

Some positive news in the ongoing pursuit for a cancer cure - this time facilitated by the International Space Station National Laboratory, Axiom Space and SpaceX. In fairly recent (space) memory, scientists have been sending cancer tumors into space as part of a longer-term effort to see what effect low gravity (micro-gravity) plays - or doesn't play - on cancer cells (hint: it puts enough strain on the cancer cells that they actually grow faster - scary!). That said, this effect has also led to some truly revolutionary approaches, that of utilizing the same effect to see what microgravity places on cancer cells treated with cancer treatment medication. Step into the picture cancer researchers at Stanford Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, who were inspired to send cancer tumors into space treated with two cancer treatment drugs. Once of these experimental drugs, Rebecsinib, proved to almost be a 'kill switch' for the cancer tumors - in that its presence inhibited the growth of the tumors significantly. While not a cure, per se, it's certainly a step in the right direction in the fight against cancer. And it also proves the invaluable nature of space-based research for problems we have right down here on Mother Earth. Brent Kaiser
