Abstract
Abnormal expression of regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Down's syndrome (DS). There are two major isoforms of RCAN1, isoforms 1 and 4. RCAN1 isoform 1 is predominantly expressed in the brain, particularly in neurons. In this report, we showed that there are two translation start codons in RCAN1 exon 1 serving as a functional translation initiation site to generate a longer 41-kDa isoform 1 (RCAN1.1L) and a shorter 31-kDa isoform 1 (RCAN1.1S). The first translation initiation site has higher translation efficiency than the downstream second one, and the translation initiation of two AUG sites is by a Cap-dependent mechanism. Short-term expression of RCAN1.1L protected SH-SY5Y cells from oxidative stress-induced apoptosis by inhibiting caspase-3 activation. However, long-term accumulation of RCAN1.1L in SH-SY5Y cells promoted oxidative stress-induced apoptosis via caspase-3 activation, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay showed that the apoptosis ratio was increased to 499.03 ± 47.56% in SH-1.1L cells compared with 283.93 ± 28.66% in control cells. Furthermore, we found that RCAN1.1L is significantly elevated in the AD brains and patients with DS. RCAN1.1S is expressed at a low level in both human cells and brain tissues. Our results defined the regulatory mechanism underlying RCAN1 expression and the roles of RCAN1.1 in oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration in AD and DS pathogenesis.

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
