Mitochondria – key organelle for military aviation safety
Journal Title: Medicine in Evolution - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Aim and objectives: Inserting mitochondria as part of major impact study on military aviation safety and defining the concept,,operational scientific research” in military aviation medicine. Material and method: Analytical study, retrospective, historic and descriptive, designed by synthesizing several conceptual studies or relevant scientific modeling conducted during 1997 – 2017, fundamental research of biological mechanisms the human body operates in space. Results: I introduced, for the first time, mitochondria as a study key organelle for military aviation safety. I detailed some of the cell biology mechanisms which mitochondria influence the physiological processes of the human body in space. I detailed and argued the practical applications of the mitochondrial study of military aviation safety, thus laying the foundations for operational scientific research. I highlighted some of the medico-military and aviation safety issues deriving from the operation of the Romanian Air Force the modern combat aircraft, F 16. I correlated the mitochondrial genetic pathology with the specific mission of the combat aircraft aviator and I highlighted the role of phylogenetic transmission, especially the maternal line, in various mitochondrial diseases. Conclusions: It is necessary to evaluate the epidemiology of mitochondrial pathology in military aviation and the impact on aviation safety. It is necessary to introduce genetic tests in the aviators periodical medical examinations, to prevent aviation tragedies. An operational scientific research study will be initiated for identification, determination and monitoring the cumulative effect of the chemical toxicity from the space systems on the human body.
