Transplantation1

  • Repeated treatment may spare dangerous cell lineages and free them from competition

    Where this hypothesis actsSurviving cell populations between repeated cycles of altered-cell removal

    What is proposedPreserve or restore viable competing cells

    With whatCell therapy

    HowSelectively remove labelled cells while retaining competitors, or add previously characterized competitors

    Possible resultPossible reduction in dangerous clones' absolute growth between cycles and stabilization of SPV_10
