Effect of captopril on neurally induced contraction and relaxation of mesenteric arteries of renal hypertensive rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effect of captopril treatment on neurally induced vasoconstrictor and vasodilator responses was examined in the isolated mesenteric arterial bed from normotensive and one-kidney, one clip hypertensive (1K1C) rats. In isolated mesenteric beds, electrical field stimulation (EFS) of perivascular nerves at basal tone induced a frequency-dependent increase in perfusion pressure that was greater in preparations from hypertensive rats compared with those from normotensive rats. Captopril treatment was associated with a decrease in vasoconstrictor responses in the hypertensive group compared with its non-treated control. Responses to norepinephrine (320 ng) were greater in hypertensive than normotensive groups; captopril reduced this response only in the hypertensive group. In preconstricted mesenteric arteries perfused with solutions containing guanethidine (5 microM) and atropine (1 microM), EFS elicited a frequency-dependent decrease in perfusion pressure that was abolished by tetrodotoxin (1 microM). Vasodilator responses to EFS were not affected by captopril treatment, although they were smaller in the hypertensive group. Acetylcholine (10 ng) induced similar decreases in perfusion pressure of normotensive and 1K1C groups; captopril did not influence these responses. These results indicate that captopril treatment does not affect the reduced neurogenic vasodilation but normalizes the augmented sympathetic-mediated vasoconstrictor responses of mesenteric resistance vessels of chronic 1K1C hypertensive rats.

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.
