Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Objective To examine the effects of short-term cyclic stretch on apoptosis in alveolar type II cells (A549).To study in vitro the direct influence of alveolar type II cells on mechanical stretch.Methods A549 were treated with different doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), 0 ng/ml, 1 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, 1000 ng/ml, and then A549 were lengthened 5%, 15%, 30% using a FLEXCELL tension unit 4000, a vacuum-driven device that applies strain to cells, which were cultured in six-well plates coated with collagen-I, and 12 cycles/min for 4 hours.Apoptosis was measured using the flow cytometry method that measures annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) staining.The morphological changes of apoptotic cells were observed by transmission electron microscope.Results Apoptosis could be induced in alveolar type II cells (A549) by mechanical stretch.The percentage of annexin V + PI cells increased after being treated with cyclic stretch for 4 hours by 5%, 15%, 30% in all groups.The morphological features of apoptotic cells demonstrated by transmission electron microscope were as follows: shrinkage of the cell, chromatin condensation and aggregation under the nuclear membrane as a crescent or lump, membrane-encapsulated nuclear fragment or cell organ formed by invagination of the cell membrane, and apoptotic body formation followed by vacuolization.Conclusion Apoptosis induced by mechanical stretch and LPS is dose dependent.Mechanical stretch aggravates apoptosis especially in cells treated with LPS.Annexin V and PI double staining is a specific, sensitive, and quantitative method for analyzing apoptotic cells.It is also helpful to clarify the protective mechanism of low-volume ventilation in ARDS.

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.
