Inhibition of Endosomal Insulin-like Growth Factor-I Processing by Cysteine Proteinase Inhibitors Blocks Receptor-mediated Functions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The receptor for the type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) has been implicated in cellular transformation and the acquisition of an invasive/metastatic phenotype in various tumors. Following ligand binding, the IGF-I receptor is internalized, and the receptor.ligand complex dissociates as the ligand is degraded by endosomal proteinases. In the present study we show that the inhibition of endosomal IGF-I-degrading enzymes in human breast and murine lung carcinoma cells by the cysteine proteinase inhibitors, E-64 and CA074-methyl ester, profoundly altered receptor trafficking and signaling. In treated cells, intracellular ligand degradation was blocked, and although the receptor and two substrates, Shc and Insulin receptor substrate, were hyperphosphorylated on tyrosine, IGF-I-induced DNA synthesis, anchorage-independent growth, and matrix metalloproteinase synthesis were inhibited. The results suggest that ligand processing by endosomal proteinases is a key step in receptor signaling and function and a potential target for therapy.

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.
