Abstract
Global obesity rates have reached pandemic proportions, increasing the risk of metabolic complications for hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide. Gaining insight on adipose tissue biology and understanding how fat pads behave during obesity is critical to investigate metabolic syndromes. Elucidation of cellular signaling pathways engaged by adipose tissue both in health and disease requires standardized protocols for protein extraction that yield consistently pure samples. A recurrent problem of currently available protocols is lipid or detergent contamination in extracted protein samples, which renders protein quantification inaccurate and, as a consequence, consistency and reproducibility of protein loading become unreliable. To overcome this problem, we improved the process of adipose tissue protein extraction by improving tissue lysis and decreasing lipid contamination. Here we describe the Removal of Excess Lipids (RELi) protocol to obtain increased yields of total proteins extracted from adipose tissue. The RELi protocol allows accurate and reproducible adipose tissue sample preparation for Western blot analysis and other investigative techniques requiring adipose tissue-derived proteins.

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
