Presence of activin signal transduction in normal ovarian cells and epithelial ovarian carcinoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the expression of inhibin subunits and activin receptors (ActRs) in normal and malignant ovarian cells. Each product of the inhibin subunits (alpha, betaa, betab) and activin receptors (ActRs) amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were detected as a single band in human granulosa cells, surface epithelial cells (OSE), and the ovarian cancer cell lines OVCAR 3 and SKOV 3. Western blot analysis was performed using polyclonal antibodies against ActR IIa or IIb peptides based on 13 COOH-terminal amino acids; cultured human granulosa cells were used as a positive control. Using ActR IIa antibody, one major band corresponding to approximately 80 kDa and one minor band corresponding to 105 kDa were observed in the samples. One single band at approximately 60 kDa was detected in OVCAR 3 and a 50 kDa band was detected with ActR IIb antibody in cultured granulosa cell, OSE and SKOV 3. Although no detectable change was induced in Smad 4 mRNA in OVCAR 3, Smad 2 mRNA levels were increased during 48 h treatment with activin A (50 ng ml(-1)). These data provide a better understanding as the first step in the mechanism of action of the activin in the epithelial ovarian carcinoma.

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.
