Abstract
Although several genes have been associated with prostate cancer progression, it is clear that we are far from understanding all the molecular events implicated in the initiation and progression of the disease to a hormone-refractory state. The androgen receptor is a central player in the initiation and proliferation of prostate cancer and its response to hormone therapy. Nuclear factor-kappaB has important proliferative and antiapoptotic activities that could contribute to the development and progression of cancer cells as well as resistance to therapy. In this study, we report that IkappaB kinase epsilon (IKKepsilon), which is controlled by nuclear factor-kappaB in human chondrocytes, is expressed in human prostate cancer cells. We show that IKKepsilon gene expression is stimulated by tumor necrosis factor-alpha treatment in LNCaP cells and is inhibited by transfection of a dominant-negative form of IkappaBalpha, which prevents the nuclear translocation of p65. Furthermore, we found that tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced IKKepsilon expression is inhibited by an androgen analogue (R1881) in androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cells and that this inhibition correlates with the modulation of IkappaBalpha expression by R1881. We also noted constitutive IKKepsilon expression in androgen-independent PC-3 and DU145 cells. To our knowledge, this is the first report of an IkappaB kinase family member whose expression is modulated by androgen and deregulated in androgen receptor-negative cells.

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
