Effect of liposomes containing cerebroside and cerebroside sulfate on cytoskeleton of cultured oligodendrocytes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oligodendrocytes (OLs) and the myelin produced by them are enriched in two glycosphingolipids, galactosylceramide (GalC) and its sulfated form, cerebroside sulfate (CBS). We showed earlier that these two glycolipids in opposed liposomal membranes or in methanol solution can adhere to each other. Here we have examined the potential effect of an interaction between GalC/CBS in apposed membranes of oligodendrocytes (OLs) by incubating cultured OLs with GalC/CBS-containing liposomes and observing the effect on the membrane sheets produced by OLs and on the distribution of OL constituents using fluorescent antibodies and confocal microscopy. The GalC/CBS-containing liposomes caused redistribution or a decrease in the density of anti-GalC and anti-MBP staining but had no effect on the density or distribution of staining by anti-PI(4,5)P(2) that remained uniformly distributed in the membrane sheets. There was no apparent change in the area of the membrane sheets nor in the amount of MBP in OL membranes, as determined by slot blots. In addition, the GalC/CBS-containing liposomes caused depolymerization of microtubules and actin filaments suggesting that the interaction of GSL-containing liposomes with the extracellular surface of the OL caused transmission of a signal across the membrane. Because these two glycolipids can adhere to each other across apposed membranes, the liposomal glycolipids may be interacting with a GalC/CBS-enriched signaling domain in the OL plasma membrane.

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.
