The weightlessness effect during space flight can cause damage to the astronaut's body,and this damage requires a longer recovery time even after the astronaut returns to Earth,and even irreversible damage may occur.Mitochondria are important organelles within cells,participating in regulating a range of important physiological and biochemical processes.Mitochondrial mediated metabolic regulation can sense microgravity stress,which is an early intracellular response caused by microgravity,promoting the adaptation of intracellular metabolism and stress-induced damage.This article reviews the research progress on the effects and related mechanisms of microgravity and simulated microgravity on cell mitochondria,providing a theoretical basis for the development of protection strategies targeting mitochondria.
