Trehalose, but not other sugars, protects HT22 cells against amyloid-beta toxicity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Trehalose sugar is being explored as a health supplement in Alzheimer's Disease due to its neuroprotective potential, which is hypothesized to be mainly due to its regulation of pathological amyloid-beta (Aβ) production and aggregation via metabolic pathways. However, the impact of trehalose on neuronal systems against amyloid toxicity is unclear. This work presents a study of the impact of trehalose at different concentrations on HT22 cell viability and explores whether trehalose can directly reduce cell death caused by exogenous Aβ1–42 oligomers. We used an MTT cell viability assay to evaluate the viability of HT22 cells exposure to exogenous Aβ1–42 oligomers alone or in combination with trehalose and several other sugars. Our results reveal that trehalose has a protective effect on the cell viability against Aβ1–42 oligomers, while other sugars, lactulose, sucrose, and fructose, provided no protection against amyloid toxicity.

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.
