Primate-specific 82-kDa choline acetyltransferase attenuates progression of Alzheimer’s disease-like pathology in the APPNL-G-F knock-in mouse model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by amyloidosis, neuroinflammation, cholinergic dysfunction and cognitive impairment. In AD, the cholinergic neuronal marker choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is reduced and the primate-specific nuclear isoform, 82-kDa ChAT, is mislocalized to cytoplasm. Cell-based studies suggest a role for 82-kDa ChAT in regulating expression of AD-related genes with potential reductions in β-amyloid (Aβ) levels. To study this further, we crossed transgenic mice expressing human 82-kDa ChAT with the AD mouse model APP NL-G-F and used molecular techniques and neurobehavioral tests to study the impact of 82-kDa ChAT on AD pathology. These mice had altered expression of genes linked to Aβ clearance and inflammation, and reduced cognitive decline, amyloidosis and gliosis. These effects were inversely related to age and Aβ plaque load and correlated best with 82-kDa ChAT localized to nuclei of neurons. The study suggests a role for 82-kDa ChAT in decreasing AD-like pathology.

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.
