To assess differences in outcomes due to age, twenty 12 week-old and twenty 29 week-old mice were flown, respectively. To directly assess spaceflight effects, half of the young and old mice (10 old, 10 young) were sacrificed on-orbit after 55-58 days (ISS Terminal, ISS-T), while the other half (10 old, 10 young) were returned live to Earth after 32 days and allowed to recover for 24 days (Live Animal Return, LAR) before sacrifice. ISS-T and LAR mice were the same age at sacrifice. Both the ISS-T and LAR animals had independent ground controls (10 mice per group housed in flight hardware in matched environmental conditions), basal controls (10 mice per group sacrificed 2 days before launch), and vivarium controls (10 mice per group housed within standard vivarium habitats). Thus RRRM-2 included a total of 160 mice. This study includes bulk RNA sequencing ribodepleted gene expression data from the kidneys from 5 old and 5 young animals from each of the following groups: LAR basal (BSL), LAR ground control (GC), LAR vivarium control (VIV), LAR flight (FLT), ISS-T basal (BSL), ISS-T ground control (GC), ISS-T vivarium control (VIV), and ISS-T flight (FLT).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://nlsp.nasa.gov/view/lsdapub/lsda_experiment/46969989-6526-5a0f-8829-bed4bff9d331", "format": "BIN", "mediaType": "application/octet-stream"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://osdr.nasa.gov/bio/repo/data/missions/SpaceX-18", "format": "BIN", "mediaType": "application/octet-stream"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://osdr.nasa.gov/bio/repo/data/studies/OSD-771", "format": "BIN", "mediaType": "application/octet-stream"}], "identifier": "10.26030/003t-2997", "keyword": ["__"], "license": "https://www.usa.gov/government-works", "modified": "2026-06-15", "programCode": ["026:000"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "Open Science Data Repository"}, "theme": ["Biological and Physical Sciences"], "title": "Transcriptional profiling of kidney tissue from mice flown on the Rodent Research Reference Mission-2 (RRRM-2)"}
