Abstract

Purpose: Human presence in space is increasingly frequent, but we must not forget that it is a hostile environment. We aimed to study the characteristics of experimental scenarios, to obtain data on human response to isolation, disruption of circadian rhythm and high levels of psychophysical stress. Methods: In these experiments, we evaluated stress response in five young healthy subjects inside an earth-based moon-settlement-like habitat during a 1-week long analog astronaut mission. Wearable devices were used to monitor daily step count of the subjects, physical activity, heart rate during physical exercise and at rest, and sleep parameters. From saliva and urine samples collected every day at awakening, we studied oxy-inflammation biomarkers and hormones (stress and appetite) were studied too. Results: At the end of the week, all subjects revealed an increase in oxidative stress and cortisol levels but no inflammation biomarkers variations, in conjunction with increasing time/daily exercise. Furthermore, a significant decrease in hours of sleep/day, sleep quality, and REM phase of sleep was recorded and correlated with the increase of reactive oxygen species. Conclusion: Oxidative stress increased in a short period of time and may be attributed to the influence of psychological stress during confinement, as well as increased exercise and decreased amount of sleep. On a long-term basis, this could impact performance. © The Author(s) 2024.
