Abstract
We illustrate the use of quantitative proteomics, namely isotope-coded affinity tag labelling and tandem mass spectrometry, to assess the targets and effects of the blockade of matrix metalloproteinases by an inhibitor drug in a breast cancer cell culture system. Treatment of MT1-MMP-transfected MDA-MB-231 cells with AG3340 (Prinomastat) directly affected the processing a multitude of matrix metalloproteinase substrates, and indirectly altered the expression of an array of other proteins with diverse functions. Therefore, broad spectrum blockade of MMPs has wide-ranging biological consequences. In this human breast cancer cell line, secreted substrates accumulated uncleaved in the conditioned medium and plasma membrane protein substrates were retained on the cell surface, due to reduced processing and shedding of these proteins (cell surface receptors, growth factors and bioactive molecules) to the medium in the presence of the matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor. Hence, proteomic investigation of drug-perturbed cellular proteomes can identify new protease substrates and at the same time provides valuable information for target validation, drug efficacy and potential side effects prior to commitment to clinical trials.

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
