hMad4, c‐Myc endogenous inhibitor, induces a replicative senescence‐like state when overexpressed in human fibroblasts
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mad family proteins have an antagonistic action on Myc-dependent cell proliferation and transformation. We isolated a human cDNA clone, human Mad4 (hMad4), encoding a polypeptide of 209 amino acid residues, exhibiting 90% identity with mouse Mad4. Northern blot analysis shows that hMad4 probe hybridizes to a 3.8 kb message; its expression is highest in quiescent human WI38 fibroblasts. Among tissues, hMad4 mRNA is most abundant in brain, lung, and muscle. Consistent with other members of the Mad family, hMad4 can repress the transactivation activity of Myc/Max heterodimers on an E-box chloramphenicol acteyl transferase (CAT) reporter plasmid; inhibition of both proliferation and clonogenic formation of hMad4-infected cells correlates with the in vitro reporter repression. Moreover, infection of young human fibroblasts induces a replicative senescence-like state. This phenotype was accompanied by s-beta-galactosidase and PAI-1 expression. These results suggest that hMad4 might be an important regulator of replicative senescence in human cells.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
