This talk focuses on leveraging NIAID’s ImmPort and NASA’s GeneLab data using computational and systems biology to investigate microRNA (miRNA)-driven risks for female astronauts. We identified a shared miRNA signature linked to small-for-gestational-age (SGA) outcomes in both humans and mice, suggesting that space stressors may elevate reproductive risks. Machine learning techniques revealed FDA-approved drugs, including hormone receptor and vitamin D receptor antagonists, as potential countermeasures. Our findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to protect female health during and after space missions.
