Efficacy of the PSD95 inhibitor Tat-NR2B9c in mice requires dose translation between species
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Tat-NR2B9c, a clinical-stage stroke neuroprotectant validated in rats and primates, was recently deemed ineffective in mice. To evaluate this discrepancy, we conducted studies in mice subjected to temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) for either 30 or 60 min according to the established principles for dose-translation between species. Tat-NR2B9c treatment reduced infarct volume by by 24.5% (p = 0.49) and 26.0% (p = 0.03) for 30 and 60 min tMCAO, respectively, at the rat-equivalent dose of 10 nMole/g, but not at the previously reported 3 nMole/g in mice. Dose translation is thus critical when preclinical experiments are conducted in new species.

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.
