Direct measurement
Inhibition1
Host cell division enables dormant bacteria to awaken in some mucosal infections
Where this hypothesis actsInfected epithelial cells in intracellular mucosal infections, tested in older-donor urothelial cultures
What is proposedReversibly arrest epithelial mitosis to prevent bacterial resuscitation
With whatNot stated in the record
HowReversible epithelial-specific mitotic arrest, with release from arrest as a rescue control
Possible resultPossible prevention of bacterial rebound while permitting migration-driven barrier recovery
