Expression and Antiproliferative Effect of a Second Form of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone in Normal and Neoplastic Ovarian Surface Epithelial Cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Epithelial ovarian carcinomas are the most common cause of death from gynecological malignancies and appear to arise from ovarian surface epithelium (OSE), but the exact mechanism of ovarian tumorigenesis has not been elucidated. Recent cloning of a second form of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH-II) has been reported in various human tissues including the ovary. However, the expression and role of GnRH-II in human OSE and ovarian carcinomas is not known. In the present study, we demonstrated that in addition to the GnRH receptor (GnRH-R), GnRH-II mRNA is expressed in normal OSE, immortalized OSE (IOSE) cells, primary cultures of ovarian tumors and ovarian cancer cell lines. Treatments with increasing doses (10(-9)-10(-7) M) of GnRH-I and -II resulted in a growth-inhibition in both non-tumorigenic IOSE-29 and tumorigenic IOSE-29EC cells. These results indicate for the first time the expression and potential anti-proliferative effect of GnRH-II, suggesting that GnRH-II, similar to GnRH-I, may have a growth-regulatory effect in normal and neoplastic OSE cells.

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.
