Antibody for human p75 LNTR identifies cholinergic basal forebrain of non-primate species
Bibliographic record
Abstract
192-IgG is an antibody directed against the p75 low affinity nerve growth factor receptor in rats, whereas ME 20.4 was raised against the analogous protein in humans. Coupled to saporin, 192-IgG and ME 20.4 have been used to lesion basal forebrain neurons in rats and primates, respectively. We compared the cross-reactivity of 192-IgG and ME 20.4 in the basal forebrain of rat, human, dog, cat, raccoon, pig, and rabbit. We found excellent species cross-reactivity of ME 20.4 in dog, raccoon, cat, pig and rabbit. In contrast, 192-IgG did not label neurons in any species other than rat. Our findings suggest that ME 20.4-saporin could be used to produce cholinergic basal forebrain lesions in several non-primate species.

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.
