Protein interaction network analysis explains spaceflight DEG enrichment

Reasoning that protein-protein interaction network analyses (using tools and resources like STRING, BioGRID, OmniPath) underpin the identification and functional interpretation of spaceflight-induced differentially expressed genes, supporting associations such as enrichment in ion transport and chaperone activities.
