Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of beta-sitosterol (BS) on the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) gene expression role in the activity of paraoxonase (PON-1) enzyme in oxidative stress status of irradiated rats. Animals were exposed to whole body γ-radiation single dose 6 Gy and received BS dose (40 mg·(kg body mass) −1 ·day −1 , orally). In liver tissue, gene expression of PPAR-γ ligand was determined. Oxidative stress marker (malondialdehyde, MDA) and antioxidant enzyme activities (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), PON-1, and arylesterase (ARE)) were assayed in serum and liver tissue. Also, serum lipid profile (cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c)) was measured. In irradiated animals that received BS, expression of PPAR-γ ligand increase significantly associated with increase in PON-1 and ARE enzyme activities. Also, the activities of SOD, CAT enzymes, and HDL-c levels display elevation. By contrast, significant decrease in MDA content, cholesterol, TG, and LDL-c levels were revealed after BS administration. Our findings in this study provide the evidence that BS has radio-protective effect via regulating the gene expression of PPAR-γ, causing an increase in PON-1 and ARE enzyme activities. This action of BS is due to its free radical scavenging properties, antioxidant effect, lowering of cholesterol, and PPAR-γ agonist properties.

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
