Abstract
There is growing evidence for a role of HOX homeodomain proteins in normal hematopoiesis. Several HOX genes, including HOXA9 and HOXA10, are expressed in primitive hematopoietic cells, implying a role in early hematopoietic differentiation. To identify potential target genes of these two closely related transcription factors, human CD34+ umbilical cord blood cells were transduced with vectors expressing either HOXA9 or HOXA10 and analyzed with cDNA micro-arrays. Statistical analysis using significance analysis of microarrays revealed a common signature of several hundred genes, demonstrating that the transcriptomes of HOXA9 and HOXA10 largely overlap in this cellular context. Seven genes that were upregulated by both HOX proteins were validated by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. HOXA9 and HOXA10 showed positive regulation of genes in the Wnt pathway, including Wnt10B and two Wnt receptors Frizzled 1 and Frizzled 5, an important pathway for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal. Other validated genes included v-ets-related gene (ERG), Iroquois 3 (IRX3), aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1), and very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase homolog 1 (VLCS-H1). GenMAPP (Gene Micro Array Pathway Profiler) analysis indicated that HOXA10 repressed expression of several genes involved in heme biosynthesis and three globin genes, indicating a general suppression of erythroid differentiation. A number of genes regulated by HOXA9 and HOXA10 are expressed in normal HSC populations.

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
