Feedback restoration1

  • Self-organized danger and inhibitor signals sustain tissue injury after infection clears

    Where this hypothesis actsAged tissue with persistent localized injury after independently verified pathogen elimination

    What is proposedRestore stable signaling by extinguishing the spatial instability

    With whatNot stated in the record

    HowSpatially redistribute inhibitor at matched mean exposure, or neutralize extracellular injury cargo sufficiently to remove the instability

    Possible resultPossible abolition of persistent injury, prevention of pattern reformation, and stabilization of SPV_5
