Score: 0.818 | Target: MANF, CDNF
Hypothesis 2: GPNMB-CD44 Axis as Anti-inflammatory Pathway

Description

Closed-loop gamma entrainment therapy enhances SST+ interneuron activity, which modulates astrocyte function through the SST-SST1R signaling axis. SST released from entorhinal cortex interneurons acts on astrocytes expressing SST1R/SST2R, enhancing their neuroprotective secretome production including MANF/GPNMB/HepaCAM, rescuing motor neuron RBP nuclear import.

Dimension Scores

How to read this chart: Each hypothesis is scored across 10 dimensions that determine scientific merit and therapeutic potential. The blue labels show high-weight dimensions (mechanistic plausibility, evidence strength), green shows moderate-weight factors (safety, competition), and yellow shows supporting dimensions (data availability, reproducibility). Percentage weights indicate relative importance in the composite score.
