Inhibition1

  • Clock proteins block repair in older tissue independently of their timing role

    Where this hypothesis actsRepair machinery in older tissue under repeated challenges

    What is proposedRemove persistent transcriptional repression while maintaining basal repair output

    With whatControlled genetic model

    HowTargeted regulatory-element perturbation and inducible protein depletion with rescue controls to remove clock-protein occupancy from repair regulatory elements

    Possible resultPossible restoration of young-reference clearance-to-repair delays without increasing integrated immune activity
