Abstract
Glutamate receptors (GluRs) are ubiquitously present in the central nervous system (CNS) as the major mediators of excitatory neurotransmission and excitotoxicity. Neural injury associated with trauma, stroke, epilepsy, and many neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntington's, and Parkinson's diseases and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis may be mediated by excessive activation of GluRs. Neurotoxicity associated with excitatory amino acids encountered in food, such as domoic acid and monosodium glutamate, has also been linked to GluRs. Less is known about GluRs outside the CNS. Recent observations suggest that several subtypes of GluRs are widely distributed in peripheral tissues. Using immunochemical and molecular techniques, the presence of GluR subtypes was demonstrated in the rat and monkey heart, with preferential distribution within the conducting system, nerve terminals, and cardiac ganglia. GluR subtypes NMDAR 1, GluR 2/3, and mGluR 2/3 are also present in kidney, liver, lung, spleen, and testis. Further investigations are needed to assess the role of these receptors in peripheral tissues and their importance in the toxicity of excitatory compounds. Therefore, food safety assessment and neurobiotechnology focusing on drugs designed to interact with GluRs should consider these tissues as potential target/effector sites.

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 it
