Spire-1 a novel contributor of invadosome and associated invasive properties
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cancer cells have an increased ability to squeeze through extracellular matrix gaps that they create by promoting proteolysis of its components. Major sites of degradation are specialized micro-domains in the plasma membrane collectively named invadosomes where the Arp2/3 complex and formin proteins cooperate to spatio-temporally control actin nucleation and the folding of a dynamic F-actin core. At invadosomes, proper coupling of exo-endocytosis allows polarized delivery of proteases that facilitate degradation of ECM and disruption of the cellular barrier. We investigated the contribution of the actin nucleator Spire-1 to invadosome structure and function, using Src-activated cells and cancer cells. We found that Spire-1 is specifically recruited at invadosomes and is part of a multi-molecular complex containing Src kinase, the formin mDia1 and actin. Spire-1 interacts with the Rab3A GTPase, a key player in the regulation of exocytosis that is present at invadosomes. Finally, over- and under-expression of Spire-1 resulted in cells with an increased or decreased potential for matrix degradation, respectively, therefore suggesting a functional interplay of Spire-1 with both actin nucleation and vesicular trafficking that might impact on cell invasive and metastatic behavior.

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.
