The long-term effects of anti-retroviral protease inhibitors on sugar transport in L6 cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the long-term effects of anti-retroviral protease inhibitors (PIs) on 2-deoxy-d -glucose (2-DG) transport in L6 cells in vitro. Exposure of L6 cells to saquinavir, ritonavir, indinavir and amprenavir resulted in significant increases in 2-DG transport using PI concentrations of 1-10 microM with continual exposure to PI. After removal of the PI for up to 48 h, 2-DG transport increases did not change and remained at pre-reversal levels. These changes in 2-DG transport were not related to stress-induced sugar transport or to apoptosis. The examination of glucose transporter (GLUT) 1, 3 or 4 translocation with subcellular fractionation indicated that insulin (i.e. 67 nM) could induce the translocation of all the GLUTs to the plasma membrane. Also, ritonavir (10 microM), which leads to a 2-fold increase in 2-DG transport, demonstrated increased GLUT (i.e. 1, 3 or 4) presence in the plasma membrane fraction, in the presence or absence of insulin. This increased 2-DG transport involved transporter presence in plasma membrane preparations and did not affect the ability of insulin to stimulate 2-DG transport with continual PI exposure. The mechanism(s) involved indicates ready reversibility of PI effects on transporters. The mechanism(s) why reversibility of PI-induced 2-DG transport was similar plus or minus PI was not apparent.

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.
