Repression of myosin isoforms in developing and denervated skeletal muscle fibers originates near motor endplates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
During development of chicken pectoralis muscle, a neonatal myosin heavy-chain isoform is supplanted progressively by an adult isoform. This expression is under neuronal control. In this study we test the hypothesis that developmental myosin transformations are initiated near the motor endplate of each muscle fiber, thereafter progressing toward the fiber ends. By using immunocytochemical methods, pectoralis muscle from chickens aged 1-115 days after hatching were labeled by antibody against neonatal isoform. Ellipse minor axis and mean optical density of labeled and/or unlabeled fiber profiles from each bird were measured by computer image analysis. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was demonstrated histochemically. Using serial cross sections, we show that smaller fiber profiles are the tapered ends of larger fiber profiles. The largest fiber profiles (central regions of the fibers) were the first to lose their neonatal myosin during development. Motor endplates were localized by AChE activity to the central regions of the fibers. The pectoralis of mature chickens was denervated for 3, 7, 15, or 21 days. After 2 weeks' denervation, neonatal myosin is first reexpressed in the fiber ends. Dev Dyn 2000;217:50-61.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
