Redox Regulation of Myocardial Erk 1/2 Phosphorylation in Experimental Hyperthyroidism: Role of Thioredoxin-Peroxiredoxin System
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The present study was conducted to test whether adaptation in the antioxidant system would differentially modulate prosurvival and proapoptotic proteins in hyperthyroidism-induced cardiac hypertrophy. Male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: control, vitamin E (20 mg · kg(-1) · d(-1) subcutaneously, 28 days), thyroxine (T4) (12 mg/L in drinking water for 28 days), and T4 + vitamin E. Cardiac mass, redox ratio, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione reductase (GR) activities, NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1), peroxiredoxin-6 (Prx-6), phospho-extracellular-signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (p-ERK 1/2)/extracellular-signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2), and phospho-c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) myocardial protein expression were quantified. Cardiac hypertrophy was attenuated in the T4 + vitamin E group. The redox ratio; GPx and GR; as well as Nrf2, Trx-1, Prx-6, and p-ERK1/2/ERK1/2 immunocontent were elevated in T4 group. All these effects were attenuated by vitamin E administration. p-JNK/JNK remained unchanged in all the groups. The overall results suggest that redox imbalance due to hyperthyroidism induce adaptation of antioxidant systems, favoring ERK1/2 activation and leading to development of cardiac hypertrophy.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
