Abstract
H(2)S is endogenously generated in vascular smooth muscle cells. The signal transduction pathways involved in the vascular effects of H(2)S have been unclear and were investigated in the present study. H(2)S induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of rat aortic tissues that was not affected by vascular denervation. The vasorelaxant potency of H(2)S was attenuated by the removal of the endothelium. Similarly, the blockade of nitric oxide synthase or the coapplication of the Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channel blockers apamin and charybdotoxin reduced the H(2)S-induced relaxation of the endothelium-intact aortic tissues. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced relaxation was completely abolished by either 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo-[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) or NS- 2028, two soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitors. Instead of inhibition, ODQ and NS-2028 potentiated the H(2)S-induced vasorelaxation, which was suppressed by superoxide dismutase. The vasorelaxant effect of H(2)S was also significantly attenuated when Ca(2+)-free bath solution was used. Finally, pretreatment of aortic tissues with H(2)S reduced the relaxant response of vascular tissues to SNP. Our results demonstrate that the vascular effect of H(2)S is partially mediated by a functional endothelium and dependent on the extracellular calcium entry but independent of the activation of the cGMP pathway.

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
