Dysregulated <i>SASS6</i> expression promotes increased ciliogenesis and cell invasion phenotypes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Centriole and/or cilia defects are characteristic of cancer cells and have been linked to cancer cell invasion. However, the mechanistic basis of these effects is unknown. Spindle assembly abnormal protein 6 homolog (SAS-6) is essential for centriole biogenesis and cilia formation. In cycling cells, SAS-6 undergoes APC Cdh1 -mediated targeted degradation by the 26S proteasome at the end of mitosis. Little is known about the function of SAS-6 outside of centrosome biogenesis. To examine this, we expressed a non-degradable SAS-6 mutant (SAS-6ND). Expression of SAS-6ND led to an increase in ciliation and cilia-dependent cell invasion, and caused an upregulation of the YAP/TAZ pathway. YAP/TAZ or ciliogenesis inhibition prevented SAS-6-induced invasion. SAS-6ND caused increased actin alignment and stress fiber coherency, and nuclear flattening known to promote YAP nuclear import. Finally, data from The Cancer Genome Atlas showed that SAS-6 overexpression is associated with poor prognosis in various cancers. Our data provide evidence for a defined role of SAS-6 in cancer cell invasion and offers mechanistic insight into the role of YAP/TAZ in this cilia-sensitive process. Synopsis SAS-6 overexpressing cells show increased ciliation, actin cytoskeleton reorganization, cell flattening, YAP pathway activation and increased invasion

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.
