Bibliographic record
Abstract
12,13-dihydroxy-9z-octadecenoic acid (12,13-DiHOME) is a linoleic acid diol derived from cytochrome P-450 (CYP) epoxygenase and epoxide hydrolase (EH) metabolism. 12,13-DiHOME is associated with inflammation and mitochondrial damage in the innate immune response, but how 12,13-DiHOME contributes to these effects is unclear. We hypothesized that 12,13-DiHOME enhances macrophage inflammation through effects on NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation. To test this hypothesis, we utilized human monocytic THP1 cells differentiated into macrophage-like cells with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). 12,13-DiHOME present during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-priming of THP1 macrophages exacerbated nigericin-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Using high-resolution respirometry, we observed that priming with LPS+12,13-DiHOME altered mitochondrial respiratory function. Mitophagy, measured using mito-Keima, was also modulated by 12,13-DiHOME present during priming. These mitochondrial effects were associated with increased sensitivity to nigericin-induced mitochondrial depolarization and reactive oxygen species production in LPS+12,13-DiHOME-primed macrophages. Nigericin-induced mitochondrial damage and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in LPS+12,13-DiHOME-primed macrophages were ablated by the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) inhibitor, Ru265. 12,13-DiHOME present during LPS-priming also enhanced nigericin-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in primary murine bone marrow-derived macrophages. In summary, these data demonstrate a pro-inflammatory role for 12,13-DiHOME by enhancing NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages.

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.
