Abstract
Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is a naturally occurring polyanion made of ten to several hundred orthophosphates (P(i)) linked together by phosphoanhydride bonds. PolyP is ubiquitously present in all organisms from bacteria to humans. Specific physiological roles of polyP vary dramatically depending on its size, concentration, tissue and subcellular localization. Recently we reported that mitochondria of ventricular myocytes contain significant amounts (280 ± 60 pmol/mg of protein) of polyP with an average length of 25 orthophosphates, and that polyP is involved in Ca(2+)-dependent activation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Here we extend our study to demonstrate the involvement of mitochondrial polyP in cardiac cell death. Furthermore, we show that polyP levels depend on the activity of the respiratory chain and are lower in myocytes from failing hearts. We conclude that polyP is a dynamically regulated macromolecule that plays an important role in mPTP-dependent cell death pathway.

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
