Liver SMN restoration rescues the Smn mouse model of spinal muscular atrophy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The liver is a key metabolic organ, acting as a hub to metabolically connect various tissues. Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disorder whereby patients have an increased susceptibility to developing dyslipidaemia and liver steatosis. It remains unknown whether fatty liver is due to an intrinsic or extrinsic impact of survival motor neuron (SMN) protein depletion. METHODS: mice, a model of SMA. Experiments assessed central and peripheral impacts using immunoblot, immunohistochemistry, and electron microscopy techniques. FINDINGS: mice. Fatty liver was ameliorated while key markers of liver function were also restored to normal levels. Certain peripheral pathologies were rescued including muscle size and pancreatic cell imbalance. Only a partial CNS recovery was seen using a liver therapeutic strategy alone. INTERPRETATION: mice. FUNDING: This work was funded by Muscular Dystrophy Association (USA) [grant number 963652 to R.K.]; the Canadian Institutes of Health Research [grant number PJT-186300 to R.K.].

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.
