IF primary murine microglia are treated with a TYROBP stabilizer (e.g., small molecule or viral TYROBP overexpression) for 48 hours, THEN phospho-SYK (p-SYK) levels will increase by at least 50% compared to vehicle-treated controls, using cultured primary microglia isolated from adult C57BL/6 mice.
Predicted outcome: Increased SYK phosphorylation (p-SYK/total SYK ratio) as measured by western blot or phospho-flow cytometry, along with upregulated expression of down
Falsification: No significant increase in p-SYK levels (<20% change) or downstream neuroprotective marker expression despite confirmed TYROBP stabilization would DISPROVE the hypothesis that TYROBP stabilization act
