Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR), expressed in parathyroid chief cells, thyroid C-cells, and cells of the kidney tubule, is essential for maintenance of calcium homeostasis. Here we show parathyroid, thyroid, and kidney CASR mRNA levels increased 2-fold at 15 h after intraperitoneal injection of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) in rats. Human thyroid C-cell (TT) and kidney proximal tubule cell (HKC) CASR gene transcription increased approximately 2-fold at 8 and 12 h after 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment. The human CASR gene has two promoters yielding alternative transcripts containing either exon 1A or exon 1B 5'-untranslated region sequences that splice to exon 2 some 242 bp before the ATG translation start site. Transcriptional start sites were identified in parathyroid gland and TT cells; that for promoter P1 lies 27 bp downstream of a TATA box, whereas that for promoter P2, which lacks a TATA box, lies in a GC-rich region. In HKC cells, transcriptional activity of a P1 reporter gene construct was 11-fold and of P2 was 33-fold above basal levels. 10(-8) m 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulated P1 activity 2-fold and P2 activity 2.5-fold. Vitamin D response elements (VDREs), in which half-sites (6 bp) are separated by three nucleotides, were identified in both promoters and shown to confer 1,25(OH)2D3 responsiveness to a heterologous promoter. This responsiveness was lost when the VDREs were mutated. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays with either in vitro transcribed/translated vitamin D receptor and retinoid X receptor-alpha, or HKC nuclear extract, specific protein-DNA complexes were formed in the presence of 1,25(OH)2D3 on oligonucleotides representing the P1 and P2 VDREs. In summary, functional VDREs have been identified in the CASR gene and provide the mechanism whereby 1,25(OH)2D up-regulates parathyroid, thyroid C-cell, and kidney CASR expression.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
