The transcription factor EPAS-1/hypoxia-inducible factor 2α plays an important role in vascular remodeling
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have studied the role of the basic helix-loop-helix-PAS transcription factor EPAS-1/hypoxia-inducible factor 2alpha in vascular development by gene targeting. In ICR/129 Sv outbred background, more than half of the mutants displayed varying degrees of vascular disorganization, typically in the yolk sac, and died in utero between embryonic day (E)9.5 and E13.5. In mutant embryos directly derived from EPAS-1(-/-) embryonic stem cells (hence in 129 Sv background), all embryos developed severe vascular defects both in the yolk sac and embryo proper and died between E9.5 and E12.5. Normal blood vessels were formed by vasculogenesis but they either fused improperly or failed to assemble into larger vessels later during development. Our results suggest that EPAS-1 plays an important role at postvasculogenesis stages and is required for the remodeling of the primary vascular network into a mature hierarchy pattern.

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.
