Proteasome activity is required for T lymphocyte aggregation after mitogen activation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The proteasome is a multicatalytic complex of proteases involved in T lymphocyte proliferation and activation through multiple mechanisms. In this study, we investigated its role in lymphocyte aggregation. We found that blocking proteasome activity by a proteasome-specific inhibitor lactacystin (LAC) prevented clustering of T lymphocytes after stimulation with various mitogens. Expression of adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and LFA-1 at cell surfaces of activated T cells was decreased after treatment with LAC. Mechanisms by which the proteasome intervenes in the expression of these adhesion molecules were different. LAC inhibited ICAM-1 expression at the mRNA level, whereas LFA-1 inhibition was probably at a post-translational level. Downregulation of these molecules after proteasome inhibition likely contributes to the observed repression of T cell aggregation. Our results show that the proteasome plays an important role in cell-cell interaction during T cell activation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
