Abstract
We previously demonstrated in the pig that instigation of three cycles of 10 min of occlusion and reperfusion in a hindlimb by tourniquet application (approximately 300 mmHg) elicited protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury (infarction) in multiple distant skeletal muscles subsequently subjected to 4 h of ischemia and 48 h of reperfusion, but the mechanism was not studied. The aim of this project was to test our hypothesis that mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) (mKATP) channels play a central role in the trigger and mediator mechanisms of hindlimb remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC) of skeletal muscle against infarction in the pig. We observed in the pig that hindlimb remote IPC reduced the infarct size of latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle flaps (8 x 13 cm) from 45 +/- 2% to 22 +/- 3% (n = 10; P < 0.05). The nonselective KATP channel inhibitor glibenclamide (0.3 mg/kg) or the selective mKATP channel inhibitor 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 5 mg/kg), but not the selective sarcolemmal KATP (sKATP) channel inhibitor HMR-1098 (3 mg/kg), abolished the infarct-protective effect of hindlimb remote IPC in LD muscle flaps (n = 10, P < 0.05) when these drugs were injected intravenously at 10 min before remote IPC. In addition, intravenous bolus injection of glibenclamide (1 mg/kg) or 5-HD (10 mg/kg) at the end of hindlimb remote IPC also abolished the infarct protection in LD muscle flaps (n = 10; P < 0.05). Furthermore, intravenous injection of the specific mKATPchannel opener BMS-191095 (2 mg/kg) at 10 min before 4 h of ischemia protected the LD muscle flap against infarction to a similar extent as hindlimb remote IPC, and this infarct-protective effect of BMS-191095 was abolished by intravenous bolus injection of 5-HD (5 mg/kg) at 10 min before or after intravenous injection of BMS-191095 (n = 10; P < 0.05). The infarct protective effect of BMS-191095 was associated with a higher muscle content of ATP at the end of 4 h of ischemia and a decrease in muscle neutrophilic myeloperoxidase activity at the end of 1.5 h of reperfusion compared with the time-matched control (n = 10, P < 0.05). These observations led us to conclude that mKATP channels play a central role in the trigger and mediator mechanisms of hindlimb remote IPC of skeletal muscle against infarction in the pig, and the opening of mKATP channels in ischemic skeletal muscle is associated with an ATP-sparing effect during sustained ischemia and attenuation of neutrophil accumulation during reperfusion.

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
