Abstract
We examined the effect of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDIs), trichostatin A (TSA), valproic acid (VPA), and sodium butyrate (NaB) on heat shock protein (hsp) gene expression during early Xenopus laevis development. HDIs enhance histone acetylation and result in the relief of repressed chromatin domains and ultimately increase the accessibility of transcription factors to target cis-acting regulatory sites. Treatment of embryos with HDIs enhanced the heat shock-induced accumulation of hsp70 mRNA in post-midblastula stage embryos. No effect was observed with actin mRNA or other hsp70 family members including heat shock cognate 70 and immunoglobulin binding protein. Normally, hsp30 genes are not heat-inducible until the late neurula or early tailbud stage of development. Treatment with HDIs resulted in heat-induced expression of hsp30 genes at the gastrula stage with enhanced heat-induced accumulation in neurula and tailbud stages. HDI treatment alone did not induce the accumulation of hsp70 or hsp30 mRNA. Whole-mount in situ hybridization verified the RNA blot analyses and additionally revealed that TSA treatment did not result in any major alterations in the spatial pattern of stress-induced hsp70 or hsp30 mRNA accumulation in early embryos. This study suggests that the states of Xenopus hsp70 and 30 chromatin are subject to repression beyond the midblastula transition.

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
