Mechanisms of regulation of G<sub>11</sub>α protein by dexamethasone in osteoblastic UMR 106–01 cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that glucocorticoids increased G(q/11)alpha protein expression and phospholipase C activity in the rat osteosarcoma cell line UMR 106-01. In this study, we demonstrated that G(11)alpha is the primary G(q)-subtype family member expressed in UMR cells. Dexamethasone treatment increased the expression of G(11)alpha protein in both a time- and a dose-dependent manner. Glucocorticoid treatment significantly increased the half-life of G(11)alpha protein from 20.3 to 63 h. Steady-state G(11)alpha mRNA level was also increased by glucocorticoid treatment by approximately 70%. This change was not the result of changes in RNA stability but rather the result of increased transcription, because the glucocorticoid-mediated upregulation of G(11)alpha mRNA was blocked by the transcription inhibitor actinomycin D. The dexamethasone induction of G(11)alpha mRNA occurred after a time lag of 12-24 h and was blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide. These results suggest that the dexamethasone-induced rise in G(11)alpha protein results primarily from changes in the degradation rate of the protein, whereas changes in G(11)alpha mRNA play a smaller role and require de novo synthesis of regulatory protein(s).

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.
