Rhythm restoration1

  • Competition for kidney transport may retain toxic waste during synchronized tissue renewal

    Where this hypothesis actsAcross tissues whose breakdown products compete for renal OAT1 transport

    What is proposedStagger tissue renewal cycles to separate competing metabolite flows in time

    With whatNot stated in the record

    HowUse a tissue renewal mimetic that distributes renewal over time, reducing overlap between flows of competing OAT1 substrates

    Possible resultPossible reduction in toxic anion retention and chronic kidney and vascular damage
