Mechanistic description

The debate supports treating this as a validation program before ranking it as a therapy. Perturbation should move a proximal molecular phenotype, then a disease-relevant phenotype, in that order.

Evidence for (1)

  • The proposed priority experiment is concrete: cell-type eQTL colocalization, enhancer perturbation, and prodromal PD single-nucleus validation in hippocampal and prefrontal neurons

Evidence against (1)

  • Therapeutic tractability is not established by the current source evidence.
