Abstract
This study examines whether intestinal inflammation leads to changes in the properties of ion channels in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons. Ileitis was induced by injection of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS), and DRG neurons innervating the ileum were labeled using fast blue. Intracellular recording techniques were used to measure electrophysiological properties of acutely dissociated neurons 12-24 h after dissection. Nociceptive neurons were identified by sensitivity to capsaicin, tetrodotoxin resistance, and size (<30 microm). The action potential threshold in neurons from TNBS-treated animals was reduced by >70% compared with controls (P < 0.001), but the resting membrane potential was unchanged. Cell diameter, input resistance (67%), and action potential upstroke velocity (22%) increased in the TNBS group (P < 0.05). The number of action potentials discharged increased in the TNBS group (P < 0.001), whereas application of 4-aminopyridine to control cells mimicked this effect. This study demonstrates that ileitis induces hyperexcitability in nociceptive DRG neurons and changes in the properties of Na(+) and K(+) channels at the soma, which persist after removal from the inflamed environment.

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
