Pharmacologic and autoradiographic evidence for an up‐regulation of kinin B<sub>2</sub> receptors in the spinal cord of spontaneously hypertensive rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
1. The effects of intrathecally (i.t.) injected kinin B(1) and B(2) receptor agonists and antagonists were measured on mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) of conscious unrestrained spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR of 16 weeks old) and age-matched normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY). Quantitative in vitro autoradiographic studies were also performed on the thoracic spinal cord of both strains with specific radioligands for B(2) receptors, [(125)I]-HPP-Hoe 140, and B(1) receptors, [(125)I]-HPP-[des-Arg(10)]-Hoe140. 2. Bradykinin (BK) (0.81 - 810 pmol) increased MAP dose-dependently with increases or decreases of HR. The pressor response to BK was significantly greater in SHR. The cardiovascular response to 8.1 pmol BK was reversibly blocked by 81 pmol Hoe 140 (B(2) antagonist) but not by 81 - 810 pmol [des-Arg(10)]-Hoe 140 (B(1) antagonist) in both strains. 3. The B(1) receptor agonist, des-Arg(9)-BK (8100 pmol) produced either no effects or increased MAP with variable effects on HR. These responses were similar in both strains and were reversibly blocked by 81 pmol Hoe 140. Inhibition with 8100 pmol [des-Arg(10)]-Hoe 140 was not specific to B(1) agonist-mediated responses. 4. [(125)I]-HPP-Hoe 140 specific binding sites were predominantly located to superficial laminae of the dorsal horn and were significantly higher in SHR. Low levels of [(125)I]-HPP-[des-Arg(10)]-HOE 140 specific binding sites were found in all laminae of both strains. 5. It is concluded that the hypersensitivity of the cardiovascular response to BK is due to an increased number of B(2) receptors in the spinal cord of SHR and that B(1) receptors are unlikely involved in spinal cardiovascular regulation in SHR.

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.
