[Weightlessness or weightlessness simulation and vascular remodeling].
Weightlessness is inavoidable during spaceflight. It brings profound physiological effects on human body. Vascular remodeling is one of the important changes of cardiovascular system caused by weightlessness or simulated weightlessness. The paper summarized the studies on the effects of weightlessness or weightlessness simulation on vascular remodeling in recent years. The emergence and development of the concept of vascular remodeling were briefly reviewed. The advances of study on vascular remodeling in recent years was briefly discussed with the points focused on the effects of weightlessness or weightlessness simulation on cardiovascular remodeling and its mechanism. It is proposed that cardiovascular remodeling might be important in studying the causes of orthostatic intolerance after spaceflight.
