Abstract
Mitogen-regulated protein/proliferin (mrp/plf) gene family transcripts rise in abundance as a response to diverse chemical and physical agents that promote morphological transformation in the murine C3H/10T1/2 cultured cell model of multi-step carcinogenesis. To determine if proliferin genes respond to tumor promoters in vivo, RNA was extracted from the whole skin of SENCAR mice after single applications of 2 or 20 microg 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA); 3.2 or 32 nmole), 20 or 40 mg benzoyl peroxide (BPO; 83, 165 micromole), or acetone vehicle alone (2.72 mmole). RNA samples were prepared from treated skin areas, 2-48 h after painting. Mrp/plf-mRNA was not detected in Northern blot hybridizations, but large increases in mRNAs for ornithine decarboxylase gene and mRNA (odc), v-jun oncogene-related transcription factor gene and mRNA (junB), egr1 (early growth response protein gene and mRNA) were measured relative to beta 2 microglobulin gene and mRNA (b2m) mRNA in response to TPA. BPO induced small relative changes in these mRNAs. Reverse transcriptase (RT)-polymerase chain reactions (PCR) detected fully-processed MRP/plf-mRNA 16-48 h after TPA treatments in five of six animals, and in three of six BPO-treated animals. The MRP/plf-mRNA species expressed in the skin were predominantly plf1 and mrp3 as determined by gene-specific restriction enzyme sites within the RT-PCR products. Expression was either undetectable or found at low levels in acetone-painted controls and was not detected during the anagen phase of the normal hair growth cycle in unpainted animals. These results demonstrate that mrp/plf-mRNA is differentially expressed in murine skin in response to mechanistically distinct tumor promoters and has potential utility as a short-term biomarker for tumor promoting effects in chemical carcinogenesis.

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
