Just goes to show that biology is WAY more complicated than "if you want to prevent X then do Y" - especially at microbilogical scale. Genes influence each other for example, so by up- or downregulating stuff you are interfering in a highly complex, non-linear system with complex consequences. Just look at this example of a gene regulation network: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Different-visualizations-of-gene-regulatory-networks-A-The-protein-protein-interaction_fig3_368589668 https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Different-visualizations...
