Abstract
In low-density, serum-free cultures of neurons from embryonic rat dorsal root ganglia, interleukin-6 supports the survival of less than one third of the neurons yet virtually all of them bear interleukin-6 alpha-receptors. A finding that might explain this selectivity is that interleukin-6 acts on sensory neurons in culture through a mechanism requiring endogenous brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Antibodies or a trkB fusion protein that block the biological activity of brain-derived neurotrophic factor synthesized by dorsal root ganglion neurons also block the survival-promoting actions of interleukin-6 on these neurons. Two results indicate that interleukin-6 influences synthesis of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in adult dorsal root ganglion neurons. Intrathecal infusion of interleukin-6 in rats increases the concentration of brain-derived neurotrophic factor mRNA in rat lumbar dorsal root ganglia. The induction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in dorsal root ganglion neurons that is seen after nerve injury in rats or wild-type mice is severely attenuated in mice with null mutation of the interleukin-6 gene. In brief, the ability of interleukin-6 to support the survival of embryonic sensory neurons in vitro depends upon the presence of endogenous brain-derived neurotrophic factor and the induction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in injured adult sensory neurons depends upon the presence of endogenous interleukin-6.

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 it
