Alterations in ether phospholipids metabolism activate the conserved UPR-Xbp1- PDIA3/ERp60 signaling to maintain intestinal homeostasis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Intestinal epithelium regeneration and homeostasis must be tightly regulated. Alteration of epithelial homeostasis is a major contributing factor to diseases such as colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel diseases. Many pathways involved in epithelial regeneration have been identified, but more regulators remain undiscovered. Metabolism has emerged as an overlooked regulator of intestinal epithelium homeostasis. Using the model organism Drosophila melanogaster , we found that ether lipids metabolism is required to maintain intestinal epithelial homeostasis. Its dysregulation in intestinal progenitors causes the activation of the unfolded protein response of the endoplasmic reticulum (UPR) that triggers Xbp1 and upregulates the conserved disulfide isomerase PDIA3/ERp60. Activation of the Xbp1-ERp60 signaling causes Jak/Stat-mediated increase in progenitor cells, compromising epithelial barrier function and survival in males but not females. This study identified ether lipids-PDIA3/ERp60 as a key regulator of intestinal progenitor homeostasis in health that, if altered, causes pathological conditions in the intestinal epithelium.

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.
