ATP triggers macropinocytosis that internalizes and is regulated by PANX1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Macropinocytosis is an endocytic process that allows cells to respond to changes in their environment by internalizing nutrients and cell surface proteins, as well as modulating cell size. Here, we identify that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) triggers macropinocytosis in murine neuroblastoma cells, thereby internalizing the ATP release channel pannexin 1 (PANX1) while concurrently increasing cross-sectional cellular area. Amiloride, a potent inhibitor of macropinocytosis-associated GTPases, abolished ATP-induced PANX1 internalization and cell area expansion. Transient expression of the GTP-hydrolysis resistant GTPase ARF6 Q67L led to increased PANX1 internalization and increased cell area equivalent to levels seen with ATP stimulation. Mutation of an extracellular tryptophan (W74) in PANX1 abolished ATP-evoked cell area enlargement suggesting that PANX1 regulates this form of macropinocytosis. This novel role of PANX1 in macropinocytosis could be particularly important for disease states implicating PANX1, such as cancer, where ATP can act as a purinergic regulator of cell growth/metastasis and as a supplementary energy source following internalization.

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.
