Effect of BMP-9 on endothelial cells and its role in atherosclerosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease involving dysfunction of endothelial cells (EC) and enhanced permeability of the endothelium to oxidized low-density lipoprotein and the transmigration of monocytes from the blood to the intima where they are transformed into foam cells after lipid engulfment. Changes in the composition of the basement membrane leading to increased fibronectin deposition also occur and modify EC-extracellular matrix (ECM) mechanotransduction. The release of lipids due to foam cell apoptosis, as well as the migration of vascular smooth muscle cells from the media to the intima and their proliferation, increase the stiffness of arteries at later stages of atherosclerosis. EC dysfunction also involves other factors, including soluble cytokines and growth factors (GF) such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP). BMP-9 is a potent circulatory GF which has been shown to affect EC behavior. However, to date, few studies have investigated its role in atherosclerosis. The present review describes the histology and homeostasis of arteries by explaining EC function/dysfunction and discusses BMP-9 effect on EC behavior, considering factors engaged in the development of atherosclerosis.

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.
