Somatostatin family of peptides and its receptors in fish
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Somatostatin (SRIF or SS) is a phylogenetically ancient, multigene family of peptides. SRIF-14 is conserved with identical primary structure in species of all classes of vertebrates. The presence of multiple SRIF genes has been demonstrated in a number of fish species and could extend to tetrapods. Three distinct SRIF genes have been identified in goldfish. One of these genes, which encodes [Pro 2 ]SRIF-14, is also present in sturgeon and African lungfish, and is closely associated with amphibian [Pro 2 ,Met 13 ]SRIF-14 gene and mammalian cortistatin gene. The post-translational processing of SRIF precursors could result in multiple forms of mature SRIF peptides, with differential abundance and tissue- or cell type-specific patterns. The main neuroendocrine role of SRIF-14 peptide that has been determined in fish is the inhibition of pituitary growth hormone secretion. The functions of SRIF-14 variant or larger forms of SRIF peptide and the regulation of SRIF gene expression remain to be explored. Type 1 and type 2 SRIF receptors have been identified from goldfish and a type 3 SRIF receptor has been identified from an electric fish. Fish SRIF receptors display considerable homology with mammalian counterparts in terms of primary structure and negative coupling to adenylate cyclase. Although additional types of receptors remain to be determined, identification of the multiple gene family of SRIF peptides and multiple types of SRIF receptors opens a new avenue for the study of physiological roles of SRIF, and the molecular and cellular mechanisms of SRIF action in fish.Key words: somatostatin, somatostatin receptor, growth hormone, fish.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
