PS2 - 209 RXFP1 Promotes Temozolomide Chemoresistance by STAT3 Signaling Pathway Activation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We identified the G protein coupled relaxin receptor RXFP1 in glioblastoma (GB) and discovered C1q-tumor necrosis factor related protein 8 (CTRP8) as a novel ligand of RXFP1 in this common and most aggressive form of brain tumor. The known RXFP1 ligand relaxin isoform 2 (RLN2) is not expressed in the brain indicating that RXFP1 signaling in GB is activated by auto-/paracrine secretion of CTRP8. In GB, RXFP1 signaling included PI3K and PKC activation and resulted in the increased production and secretion of lysosomal protease cathepsin B, a known prognostic marker of GB. In the present study, we have investigated the potential role of RXFP1 in chemoresistance to the commonly used DNA alkylating drug temozolomide (TMZ) in human GB. Upon TMZ treatment, CTRP8/RLN2 mediated activation of RXFP1 was able to mitigate DNA damage in human primary GB cells and enhanced their survival. Activation of RXFP1 resulted in STAT3 pathway activation and the RXFP1- and STAT3-dependent up-regulation of proteins and their activity deemed important for TMZ-induced DNA damage repair. Furthermore, RXFP1 activation resulted in the up-regulation of key anti-apoptotic factors in human GB cells. Our results indicate a novel role for the CTRP8-RXFP1 ligand-receptor system in STAT3-dependent cell invasion, TMZ chemoresistance, and survival and identify RXFP1 as a new protective G protein coupled receptor in GB cells.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
