Mechanistic description
Aging neurons lose synchronization between metabolic oscillators (NAD+/NADH cycles) and epigenetic clocks. NAD+ precursors with time-restricted chromatin modifier delivery could re-couple these oscillators.
Debate provenance: derived from debate sess_SDA-2026-04-04-gap-epigenetic-reprog-b685190e on question: Epigenetic reprogramming in aging neurons. Consensus signal: domain_expert, skeptic, synthesizer, theorist discussed the mechanism terms Clock, Coupling, Epigenetic, Metabolic, NAD, NADH, Oscillator, Reversal. Novelty signal: skeptic-discussed-with-qualified-concession.
