Enhancement of presynaptic performance in transgenic <i>Drosophila</i> overexpressing heat shock protein Hsp70
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Prior heat shock confers protection to Drosophila synapses during subsequent heat stress by stabilizing quantal size and reducing the decline of quantal emission at individual synaptic boutons. The major heat shock protein Hsp70, which is strongly induced by high temperatures in Drosophila, may be responsible for this synaptic protection. To test this hypothesis, we investigated synaptic protection and stabilization at larval neuromuscular junctions of transgenic Drosophila which produce more than the normal amount of Hsp70 in response to heat shock. Overexpression of Hsp70 coincides with enhanced protection of presynaptic performance, assayed by measuring mean quantal content and percentage success of transmission. Quantal size was not selectively altered, indicating no effects of overexpression on postsynaptic performance. Thus, presynaptic mechanisms can be protected by manipulating levels of Hsp70, which would provide stability to neural circuits otherwise susceptible to heat stress.

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.
