Biotransformation Enzymes and Thyroid Axis Disruption in Juvenile Rainbow Trout (<i>Oncorhynchus mykiss</i>) Exposed to Hexabromocyclododecane Diastereoisomers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were fed either a reference diet or one of three diets enriched with alpha, beta, or gamma diastereoisomers of hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD, C12H18Br6) for 56 days. This exposure period was followed by 112 days during which all fish were fed the reference diet. Potential effects of HBCD on phase I and II biotransformation enzyme activities and thyroid axis disruption were examined. Disruption of the thyroid axis was most evident in the gamma-HBCD exposed group, as indicated by lower circular FT4 and higher FT3 as well as an increase in thyroid epithelial cell height. However, fish fed the alpha-HBCD enriched diet also exhibited altered glucuronyltransferase activity and thyroid epithelial cell heights and the beta-HBCD group had altered FT4 and FT3 and glucuronyltransferase activity. T4ORD activity was not affected after 14 days, but was significantly lower among all HBCD exposed fish compared to the reference fish after 56 days. Results from these experiments indicate that all isomers have the potential to disrupt thyroid homeostasis.

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.
