Enhanced apoptosis through farnesol inhibition of phospholipase D signal transduction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Farnesol is a catabolite of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway that preferentially causes apoptosis in tumorigenic cells. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidic acid (PA), and diacylglycerol (DAG) were able to prevent induction of apoptosis by farnesol. Primary alcohol inhibition of PC catabolism by phospholipase D augmented farnesol-induced apoptosis. Exogenous PC was unable to prevent the increase in farnesol-induced apoptosis by primary alcohols, whereas DAG was protective. Farnesol-mediated apoptosis was prevented by transformation with a plasmid coding for the PA phosphatase LPP3, but not by an inactive LPP3 point mutant. Farnesol did not directly inhibit LPP3 PA phosphatase enzyme activity in an in vitro mixed micelle assay. We propose that farnesol inhibits the action of a DAG pool generated by phospholipase D signal transduction that normally activates an antiapoptotic/pro-proliferative target.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
