Synchronized damaged-cell removal may induce lasting immune tolerance to later damaged cells
Where this hypothesis actsAutologous older-human bronchial cultures with demonstrated endogenous recognition of damaged-cell antigens
What is proposedCompare synchronized and staggered apoptotic removal of damaged cells
With whatNot stated in the record
HowUse the same calibrated apoptosis method, matching cumulative killed-cell number, antigen amount and initial tissue deficit; the specific removal method is not supplied
Possible resultPossible persistent antigen-specific tolerance followed by faster clearance-attributable damaged-cell accumulation

Barrier repair, damaged-cell removal and reserve loading may improve function without slowing aging
Where this hypothesis actsA specified older-human population, with the population and safe depletion method still to be identified
What is proposedSelectively remove damaged cells
With whatNot stated in the record
HowNot stated in the record
Possible resultPossible damaged-cell burden reduction without a change in subsequent damage accumulation rates
