Absence of meal-induced insulin sensitization (AMIS) in aging rats is associated with cardiac dysfunction that is protected by antioxidants
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that progressive development of absence of meal-induced insulin sensitization (AMIS) leads to postprandial hyperglycemia, compensatory hyperinsulinemia, resultant hyperlipidemia, increased oxidative stress, and obesity, progressing to syndrome X in aging rats. The present study tested the hypothesis that progressive development of AMIS in aging rats further resulted in deterioration in cardiac performance. Anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats were tested at 9, 26, and 52 wk to determine their dynamic response to insulin and cardiac function. Dynamic insulin sensitivity was determined before and after atropine to quantitate hepatic insulin sensitizing substance (HISS)-dependent and -independent insulin action. Cardiac performance was evaluated using a Millar pressure-volume conductance catheter system. AMIS developed with age, as demonstrated by significant decrease in HISS-dependent insulin action, and this syndrome was increased by sucrose supplementation and inhibited by the antioxidant treatment. Associated with progressive development of AMIS, aging rats showed impaired cardiac performance, including the reduction in cardiac index, heart rate, dP/dt(max), dP/dt(min), ejection fraction and decreased slope of left ventricular end-systolic pressure-volume relationship, and increased relaxation time constant of left ventricular pressure as well as increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. Total peripheral vascular resistance also increased with age. Sucrose supplementation and antioxidant treatment, respectively, potentiated and attenuated cardiac dysfunction associated with age. In addition, poor cardiac performance correlated closely with the development of AMIS. These results indicate that AMIS is the first metabolic defect that leads to homeostatic disturbances and dysfunctions, including cardiovascular diseases.

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.
