Sex‐specific meiosis responses to Gsdf in medaka ( <i>Oryzias latipes</i> )
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The meiotic entry of undifferentiated germ cells is sexually specific and strictly regulated by the testicular or ovarian environment. Germline stem cells with a set of abnormal sex chromosomes and associated autosomes undergo defective meiotic processes and are eventually eliminated by yet to be defined post‐transcriptional modifications. Herein, we report the role of gsdf , a member of BMP/TGFβ family uniquely found in teleost, in the regulation of meiotic entry in medaka ( Oryzias latipes ) via analyses of gametogenesis in gsdf ‐deficient XX and XY gonads in comparison with their wild‐type siblings. Several differentially expressed genes, including the FKB506‐binding protein 7 ( fkbp7 ), were significantly upregulated in pubertal gsdf ‐deficient gonads. The increase in alternative pre‐mRNA isoforms of meiotic synaptonemal complex gene sycp3 was visualized using Integrative Genomics Viewer and confirmed by real‐time qPCR. Nevertheless, immunofluorescence analysis showed that Sycp3 protein products reduced significantly in gsdf ‐deficient XY oocytes. Transmission electron microscope observations showed that normal synchronous cysts were replaced by asynchronous cysts in gsdf ‐deficient testis. Breeding experiments showed that the sex ratio deviation of gsdf −/− XY gametes in a non‐Mendelian manner might be due to the non‐segregation of XY chromosomes. Taken together, our results suggest that gsdf plays a role in the proper execution of cytoplasmic and nuclear events through receptor Smad phosphorylation and Sycp3 dephosphorylation to coordinate medaka gametogenesis, including sex‐specific mitotic divisions and meiotic recombination.

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.
