Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Mouse L929 fibroblasts transfected to express a secreted form of human alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) were encapsulated in approximately 400-microm poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) (HEMA-MMA) microcapsules as a baseline for the use of genetically engineered cells in encapsulation therapy. Although incubation of microcapsules with serum-containing medium resulted in maintaining the number of live encapsulated cells with the passage of time, incubation in a serum-free medium resulted in a three-fold proliferation of the encapsulated cells within a 3-week observation period. Similar to the results for incubation with serum-containing medium, co-encapsulation with a bovine dermal type I collagen, i.e., the inclusion of a matrix in the core of the capsules, resulted in maintenance of the initial number of live cells with the passage of time. SEAP measurements indicated that the transfected cells not only continued to express the transgene product after encapsulation, but also adapted to the capsule microenvironment to secrete SEAP at progressively larger amounts with the passage of time. However, SEAP expression only occurred when the transfected cells (encapsulated or non-encapsulated) were cultivated in serum-containing medium.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
