Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is one of the most prevalent congenital heart defects, with adverse cardiac remodeling and long-term cardiac complications. Here, searching for pathomechanisms, we find upregulated bublin coiled-coil protein (BBLN) in heart specimens of TOF patients with cyanosis, which positively correlates with cardiac remodeling pathways. Human BBLN, a protein with largely unknown function, promoted heart failure features, with increased mortality when overexpressed in mice, in a protein dosage-dependent manner. BBLN enhanced cardiac inflammation, fibrosis and necroptosis by calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II delta (CAMK2D) activation, whereas a BBLN mutant with impaired CAMK2D binding was inert. Downregulation of CAMK2D by an interfering RNA retarded BBLN-induced symptoms of heart failure. Endogenous BBLN was induced by hypoxia as a major TOF feature in human patients and by chronic pressure overload in mice, and its downregulation decreased CAMK2D hyperactivity, necroptosis and cardiovascular dysfunction. Thus, BBLN promotes CAMK2D-induced pathways to pathological cardiac remodeling, which are triggered by hypoxia in TOF.

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 it
