Abstract
The healthy endothelium prevents platelet aggregation and leucocyte adhesion, controls permeability to plasma components and maintains vascular integrity. Damage to the endothelium promotes endothelial dysfunction characterized by: altered endothelium-mediated vasodilation, increased vascular reactivity, platelet aggregation, thrombus formation, increased permeability, leucocyte adhesion and monocyte migration. Molecular processes contributing to these phenomena include increased expression of adhesion molecules, synthesis of pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic factors and increased endothelin-1 secretion. Decreased nitric oxide bioavailability and increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are among the major molecular changes associated with endothelial dysfunction. A critical source of endothelial ROS is a family of non-phagocytic nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases, including the prototypic Nox2-based NADPH oxidases, Nox1, Nox4 and Nox5. Other possible sources include mitochondrial electron transport enzymes, xanthine oxidase, cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase and uncoupled nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Cross-talk between ROS-generating enzymes, such as mitochondrial oxidases and Noxs, is increasingly implicated in cellular ROS production. The present review discusses the importance of endothelial ROS in health and disease and focuses on the major ROS-generating systems in the endothelium, namely uncoupled endothelial nitric oxide synthase and NADPH oxidases.

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 it
