Abstract
Freshwater (FW) rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) urinary bladders mounted in vitro under symmetrical saline conditions displayed electroneutral active absorption of Na(+) and Cl(-) from the mucosal side; the transepithelial potential (V(t)) was 0.1 mV, and the short-circuit current was less than 1 microA cm(-2). Removal of Na(+) from mucosal saline decreased Cl(-) absorption by 56% and removal of Cl(-) decreased Na(+) absorption by 69%. However, active net absorption of both Na(+) and Cl(-) was not abolished when Cl(-) or Na(+) was replaced with an impermeant ion (gluconate or choline, respectively). Under physiological conditions with artificial urine (¿Na(+) = 2.12 mM, ¿Cl(-) = 3.51 mM) bathing the mucosal surface and saline bathing the serosal surface, transepithelial potential (V(t)) increased to a serosal positive approximately +7.6 mV. Unidirectional influx rates of both Na(+) and Cl(-) were 10-20-fold lower but active absorption of both ions still occurred according to the Ussing flux ratio criterion. Replacement of Na(+) with choline, or Cl(-) with gluconate, in the mucosal artificial urine yielded no change in unidirectional influx of Cl(-) or Na(+), respectively. However, kinetic analyses indicated a decrease in maximum Na(+) transport rate (J(max)) of 66% with no change in affinity (K(m)) in the low Cl(-) mucosal solution relative to the control solution. Similarly, there was a 79% decrease in J(max) values for Cl(-), again with no change in K(m), in the low-Na(+) mucosal bathing. The mucosal addition of DIDS, amiloride or bumetanide (10(-4) M) had no effect on either Na(+) or Cl(-) transport, under either symmetrical saline or artificial urine/saline conditions. Addition of the three drugs simultaneously (10(-4) M), or chlorothiazide (10(-3) M), under symmetrical saline conditions also had no effect on Na(+) or Cl(-) transport rates. Cyanide (10(-3) M) addition to mucosal artificial urine caused a slowly developing decrease of Na(+) influx to 59% and Cl(-) influx to 50% in the period after drug addition. Na(+) and Cl(-) reabsorption appears to be a partially coupled process in the urinary bladder of O. mykiss; transport mechanisms are both dependent upon and independent of the other ion.

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
