IL‐1β enhances cell adhesion to degraded fibronectin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
IL-1β is a prominent proinflammatory cytokine that mediates degradation of extracellular matrix proteins through increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases, which involves a signaling pathway in adherent cells that is restricted by focal adhesions. Currently, the mechanism by which IL-1β affects cell adhesion to matrix proteins is not defined, and it is not known whether degraded matrix proteins affect IL-1β signaling. We examined adhesion-related IL-1β signaling in fibroblasts attaching to native or MMP3-degraded fibronectin. IL-1β increased cell attachment, resistance to shear force and the numbers of focal adhesions containing activated β(1) integrins. IL-1β-enhanced attachment required FAK, kindlins 1/2, and talin. MMP3-degraded fibronectin-inhibited IL-1β-enhanced cell adhesion and promoted spontaneous ERK activation that was independent of IL-1β treatment. We conclude that IL-1β enhances the adhesion of anchorage-dependent cells to MMP3-degraded fibronectin, which, in turn, is associated with deregulated cellular responses to IL-1β. These data point to a novel role of IL-1β as a proadhesive signaling molecule in inflammation that employs kindlins and talin to regulate adhesion.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
