Phosphorylation of Heat Shock Protein-90 by TSH in FRTL-5 Thyroid Cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
CONTEXT: Although it is well established that thyrotropin (TSH) initiates signal transduction systems resulting in protein kinase(s) activation, the phosphorylated targets have not been fully characterized. OBJECTIVE/DESIGN: In FRTL-5 thyroid cells, we used two-dimensional (2D) gel images of silver-stained proteins isolated from FRTL- 5 thyroid cells following TSH stimulation to identify potential phosphorylation targets. RESULTS: We characterized a 90 kDa protein that had undergone a pH shift and subsequently identified it as heat shock protein-90 (hsp-90) following in-gel trypsin digestion and mass spectroscopy. This was confirmed by Western blot using a monoclonal antibody against hsp-90. Western blot analysis of the 2D gel images using a polyclonal antibody directed at phosphoserine/threonine sites showed that TSH induced the phosphorylation of hsp-90. Western blotting of hsp-90 following stimulators of the signal transduction systems mediated by TSH indicated that TSH-mediated hsp-90 phosphorylation occurs through protein kinases A and C. CONCLUSION: In summary, we have demonstrated that TSH action stimulates the phosphorylation of hsp-90 in FRTL-5 thyroid cells. Abnormalities of hsp-90 phosphorylation may be a mediator in the development of thyroid disease.

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.
