Evidence has been accumulating from spaceflight and ground simulation studies suggesting that the normal relationship between neuroendocrine driving mechanisms and their respective target organs may become uncoupled; and that the sensitivity of the various components of the closed-loop systems may be altered. Changes in the regulation of the pituitary-adrenal system and the angioten-sinaldosterone system is discussed in support of this thesis.
