A germacranolide sesquiterpene lactone suppressed inducible nitric oxide synthase by downregulating NF-κB activity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A germacranolide sesquiterpene lactone, 2α,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α-angeloyloxy-9β-(3-methylbutyloxy)-germacran-8α,12-olide (EDAG), isolated from Carpesium triste var. manshuricum, showed inhibitory activity in the production of nitric oxide (NO) and the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA and protein in LPS-activated macrophage cells. Molecular analysis reveals that these suppressive effects are correlated with the inhibition of NF-κB activation by EDAG. Immunoblotting showed that EDAG suppressed the LPS-induced degradation of I-κBα and decreased nuclear translocation of p65. Furthermore, EDAG showed reduced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK, whereas activation of JNK was not changed. These data suggest, at least in part, that EDAG utilizes the signal cascades of ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, and NF-κB for the suppression of iNOS gene expression.

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.
