Abstract
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, facilitates apoptosis during development and after injury to the CNS. The signaling cascades activated by p75NTR that result in apoptosis remain poorly understood. In this study, we show that overexpression of p75NTR in primary cortical neurons, in pheochromocytoma cell line (PC12) cells, and in glioma cells results in activation of Jun kinase (JNK), accumulation of cytochrome c within the cytosol, and activation of caspases 9, 6, and 3. To link p75NTR-dependent JNK activation to mitochondrial cytochrome c release, regulation of BH3-domain-only family members was examined. Transcription of BH3-domain-only family members was not induced by p75NTR, but p75NTR-dependent JNK activation resulted in phosphorylation and oligomerization of the BH3-domain-only family member Bad. Loss of function experiments using Bad dominant negatives or RNA interference demonstrated a requirement for Bad in p75NTR-induced apoptosis. Together, these studies provide the first data linking apoptosis induced by p75NTR to the phosphorylation of BH3-domain-only family members.

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
