Divergent regulation of GAP-43 expression and CNS neurite outgrowth by cyclic AMP
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Robust process outgrowth and high expression of the growth-associated protein GAP-43 seem to be intrinsic features of neurons, but both are down-regulated after axonal contact of target cells. We report that chronic exposure of the serotonergic CNS cell line RN46A to cyclic AMP analogs, forskolin, or cholera toxin represses GAP-43 expression in a dose dependent manner. Thus, cAMP could mediate a GAP-43 repressive signal that is initiated extracellularly. Activation of the cyclic AMP pathway by these same reagents, however, enhances the rate that RN46A cells extend neurites. This stimulation of neurite growth can occur during inhibition of new transcription, and in the absence of high levels of GAP-43. These findings demonstrate that a GAP-43-repressing intracellular signaling pathway exists, that repression of GAP-43 expression by cAMP is not directly coupled to inhibition of neurite growth, and that acceleration of growth cone advancement by cAMP is not dependent on the presence of GAP-43.

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.
