<i>PUM1</i> modulates trophoblast cell proliferation and migration through <i>LRP6</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Preeclampsia is a severe pregnancy complication characterized by hypertension and may cause maternal morbidity and mortality. A better understanding of the essential genes involved in preeclampsia pathophysiology is urgently needed. This study investigated the function and molecular mechanisms of pumilio RNA binding family member 1 (PUM1) in extravillous trophoblast cells (EVTs). The interaction between protein and mRNA was verified by RNA pull-down assays, RNA immunoprecipitation assays, and luciferase reporter assays. The mRNA and protein levels of the genes involved were determined by RT-qPCR and western blot assays, respectively. Our results demonstrated that PUM1 could bind to the 3′-untranslated region of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) mRNA, resulting in reduced expression of LRP6 mRNA and protein. Repression of PUM1 resulted in enhanced colony formation, cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of EVTs. The PUM1-depletion-mediated promotion effects on EVTs could be abrogated by LRP6 knockdown. PUM1 regulates the growth and mobility of EVTs by modulating LRP6 expression. Developing strategies to balance PUM1 and LRP6 levels may be beneficial for the management of preeclampsia patients.

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.
