Mitochondrial Biogenesis Reset Theory
🧪 Overview
Complete senescence reversal requires coordinated restoration of mitochondrial biogenesis through PGC-1α reactivation combined with selective autophagy enhancement. This dual approach would restore cellular energetics while clearing damaged organelles, enabling functional rejuvenation rather than mere stabilization.
Debate provenance: derived from debate `sess_SDA-2026-04-08-gap-debate-20260406-062101-7751c220` on question: The highest-ranked hypothesis assumes senescence reversibility through metabolic reprogramming, but the debate did not establish whether senescent cells can return to normal function or only halt further deterioration. This mechanistic distinction is fundamental to therapeutic expectations.
