Gene‐expression profile and localization of Na<sup>+</sup>/K<sup>+</sup>‐<scp>ATP</scp>ase in rat enamel organ cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The sodium pump Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, expressed in virtually all cells of higher organisms, is involved in establishing a resting membrane potential and in creating a sodium gradient to facilitate a number of membrane-associated transport activities. Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is an oligomer of α, β, and γ subunits. Four unique genes encode each of the α and β subunits. In dental enamel cells, the spatiotemporal expression of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is poorly characterized. Using the rat incisor as a model, this study provides a comprehensive expression profile of all four α and all four β Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase subunits throughout all stages of amelogenesis. Real-time PCR, western blot analysis, and immunolocalization revealed that α1, β1, and β3 are expressed in the enamel organ and that all three are most highly expressed during late-maturation-stage amelogenesis. Expression of β3 was significantly higher than expression of β1, suggesting that the dominant Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase consists of an α1β3 dimer. Localization of α1, β1, and β3 subunits in ameloblasts was primarily to the cytoplasm and occasionally along the basolateral membranes. Weaker expression was also noted in papillary layer cells during early maturation. Our data support that Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is functional in maturation-stage ameloblasts.

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.
