Abstract
We have described two novel implantation serine proteinase (ISP) genes that are expressed during the implantation period. The ISP1 gene may encode the embryo-derived enzyme strypsin, which is necessary for blastocyst hatching in vitro and the initiation of invasion. The ISP2 gene, which encodes a related tryptase, is expressed in endometrial glands and is regulated by progesterone during the peri-implantation period. Based on similarities between ISP2 gene expression and that of a progesterone-regulated lumenal serine proteinase activity associated with lysis of the zona pellucida, we have suggested that the strypsin related protein, ISP2, may encode a zona lysin proteinase. Recently strypsin has also been found within uterine fluid, suggesting a second potential role in hatching. Consistently, we have discovered that ISP1 is also expressed in the uterine secretory gland at the time of hatching. In this study we demonstrate that both ISP1 and ISP2 are secreted together into the uterine lumen at peri-implantation, and that the appearance of ISP protein is regulated positively at the transcriptional level by progesterone and negatively at the posttranscriptional level by estrogen. This negative regulation by estrogen may be overridden in pregnancy as ISP protein expression is restored during oil-induced decidualization. ISP1 and ISP2 proteins are also expressed in proestrous suggesting additional roles in the endometrial cycle.

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
