Abstract
The human ether-a-go-go related gene (HERG) encodes K+ channel identified as a molecular target for mutations underlying some forms of the long Q-T syndrome, a lethal cardiac arrhythmia. Recent studies revealed that HERG is abundantly expressed in a variety of tumor cells. Yet, the role of HERG in tumor cells had remained unclear. Here, we show that HERG conductance markedly promotes H2O2-induced apoptosis of various tumor cells, whereas HERG expression facilitates the tumor cell proliferation caused by tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand (TNF-alpha). Immunostaining and immunocoprecipitation reveal coexpression of HERG and TNF receptor 1 on the cytoplasmic membrane, which is correlated with greater activities of nuclear transcription factor, nuclear factor-kappaB, in HERG-expressing tumor cells. Our data suggest that HERG K+ channel is a regulator of tumor cell proliferation and apoptosis and provide a potential new target for cancer therapy.

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 it
