The phrase you are looking for is "potentially retarded" which means having the potential to be intellectually delayed or impaired. Example: Children who are exposed to certain toxins while in the womb are potentially retarded.
Thus, IMP3 inhibition presents an alternative means of selectively impeding cell migration to potentially retard the metastatic potential of PDAC.
Intervention that suppressed this signaling loop may potentially retard age-associated adverse arterial remodeling.
Thus, interventions aimed at any one of these local signaling loop elements may potentially retard adverse age-associated arterial remodeling.
Disruption of axoplasmic flow by inflammation in the brainstem could potentially retard viral propagation, particularly towards the cerebral hemispheres in the situation of paralytic rabies.
Hence, delivery of BC and its conversion to retinoids in BCMO1-expressing cells in peripheral tissues can potentially retard atherosclerosis without restoring liver retinol pools.
Genetic instability should accelerate carcinogenesis by increasing the rate of advantageous driver mutations; however, genetic instability can also potentially retard tumour growth by increasing the rate of deleterious mutation.
It also means we are fragmenting our development efforts, potentially retarding the evolution of our libraries and toolkits.
(Note, however, that if migration rates are too high, genetic variation may be reduced through reduction of between patch variation, and hence local adaptation; potentially retarding the rate of adaptation [ 10]).
Klotho protein can potentially reverse or retard stem cell depletion and abate age-associated pathological processes.
Mr. Hanssen's response to another message reveals the extent of his estrangement, and of his self-conceit: "The U.S. can be regarded as a powerfully built but retarded child, potentially dangerous but young, immature and easily manipulated".
Therefore, we hypothesize that strategies targeted toward maintaining adequate NAD+ content during the aging process may prove a novel and potentially effective mechanism for retarding oxidative stress mediated cell degeneration, and age associated disorders.
