Cyclic phosphatidic acid elicits neurotrophin‐like actions in embryonic hippocampal neurons
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cyclic phosphatidic acid (cPA; 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-2,3-cyclic phosphate) is an analog of the growth factor-like phospholipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). As brain tissue is the richest source of cPA we tested its effects on hippocampal neurons from day 16/17 embryonic rat cultured in a serum-free medium. Nanomolar concentrations of cPA elicited a neurotrophic effect and promoted neurite outgrowth that exceeded that of 50 ng/mL nerve growth factor (NGF). Pertussis toxin, the LPA1/LPA3 receptor-selective antagonist dioctylglycerol pyrophosphate, the myristoylated inhibitory pseudosubstrate peptide of protein kinase A (PKI), Wortmannin and PD98059 abolished the neurite-promoting effect. cPA elicited a sustained activation of extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK) 1/2 and Akt. Clostridium difficile toxin B, an inhibitor of the Rho family of GTPases, reduced cPA-induced enhancement of neurite outgrowth. In B5P cells, a clonal cell line of PC12 cells overexpressing tyrosine kinase NGF receptor (TrkA), cPA elicited transphosphorylation of TrkA. cPA-elicited ERK activation was blocked by K252a and PKI. These results suggest that cPA mimics the effects of, and activates signaling pathways similar to, the neurotrophin NGF in cultured embryonic hippocampal neurons and B5P cells.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
