Inhibitors of Human Neuraminidase Enzymes Block Transmigration in vitro
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cell migration to a site of inflammation is an important step of the immune response. This process is coordinated by cytokines, receptors, and the signal processing machinery of the cell. Many cellular receptors are glycosylated, and their activity can be modulated through changes in glycan structure. Furthermore, glycosylation can be critical to the folding and trafficking of receptors. In this work, we investigated the role of native human neuraminidase enzymes (NEU) in transmigration. We used a cultured T cell line (Jurkat) and a transwell assay with fibronectin (FN) coated wells and cytokines (IL-4 and TNF-α) as chemoattractants in the bottom chamber. We observed that NEU1, NEU3, and NEU4 were positive regulators of transmigration using an siRNA knockdown. Furthermore, we found that pharmacological inhibition of these enzymes inhibited transmigration. We conclude that human NEU isoenzymes NEU1, NEU3, and NEU4 can act as positive regulators of transmigration and should be investigated as targets for anti-inflammatory strategies.

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.
