Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The generation of ceramide in cellular membranes is believed to cause coalescence of small lipid raft domains to give large signaling platforms, thus providing a site for the oligomerization of cell surface receptors. We have used atomic force microscopy to study the effects of ceramide generation by in situ enzymatic hydrolysis of sphingomyelin in phase-separated lipid bilayers that have sphingomyelin/cholesterol-rich domains surrounded by a fluid phase. In situ generation of ceramide produces heterogeneous domains with many raised subdomains that are also formed in bilayers containing premixed ceramide. However, in situ ceramide generation also results in the restructuring of the bilayer to give (1) areas of fluid phase that are devoid of domains, (2) areas that have a distribution of domains similar to the original bilayer, and (3) areas containing clusters of domains. The observation of the ceramide-promoted heterogeneity and clustering of raft domains in a physiologically relevant model provides strong support for the ceramide-induced formation of signaling platforms in cell membranes.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
