Abstract
UNLABELLED: Glutathione peroxidase (GPx-1) is a selenoenzyme that metabolizes H(2)O(2), a source of potentially toxic free radicals. Steroidogenesis is markedly inhibited by H(2)O(2) in vitro. OBJECTIVE: to study the effects of selenium deficiency on GPx activity and adrenal steroidogenesis in a novel adrenal cell line developed using targeted tumorigenesis. METHODS: AN4Rppc7 cells were grown for 7 days in serum-free medium. 8-Br-cAMP-stimulated concentrations of steroid hormones were measured by RIA. StAR (Steroid Acute Reactive Protein) mRNA was measured by Northern blot. RESULTS: selenium deficiency caused a 99% There was a 51%, progesterone, corticosterone and aldosterone production, respectively (p<0.05 by ANOVA). StAR mRNA was not affected by selenium. CONCLUSIONS: selenium deficiency causes a marked decrease in GPx activity. Decreased steroid hormone production occurs for selenium concentrations equal or lower than 5 nM. The absence of changes in StAR mRNA content suggests that selenium deficiency does not affect cholesterol access to the mitochondria.

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
