Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Protein interacting with C-kinase 1 (PICK1) is important for synaptic plasticity through directing transport of glutamate receptors and other proteins. PICK1 gene variants have been associated with schizophrenia. To examine the role of PICK1 in schizophrenia-related behaviors, mice with a mutation in the PICK1 lipid-interacting BAR domain were characterized. Male Pick1-S262T mice had disrupted AMPA receptor (AMPAR) subunit GluA1 and GluA2 protein expression in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (PFC). Young adult, but not juvenile (P21), Pick1-S262T mice showed decreased hippocampal synaptic transmission and deficits in long-term depression (LTD). Mutant males also had deficits in reversal learning in the Morris water maze (MWM). These observations suggest that the Pick1-S262T mutation affects AMPAR trafficking, disrupting synaptic transmission and plasticity, as well as cognitive flexibility, a core neuropsychological deficit in schizophrenia. This work suggests possible mechanisms by which a known schizophrenia susceptibility gene could contribute to clinical features of the disorder.

Not 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.
