Proteinase‐activated receptor‐2 (PAR‐2): regulation of salivary and pancreatic exocrine secretion <i>in vivo</i> in rats and mice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2) is expressed throughout the gastrointestinal tract including the pancreas, and may be involved in digestive functions. The aim of our study was to evaluate a potential role for PAR-2 in regulating salivary and pancreatic exocrine secretion in vivo. PAR-2-activating peptides (PAR-2-APs), but not selective PAR-1-APs, administered intravenously, increased salivary secretion in the mouse or rat; this effect of the PAR-2-APs was unaffected by atropine, phentolamine, propranolol or indomethacin. Secretion (amylase) by rat parotid gland slices in vitro was also stimulated by PAR-2-APs and trypsin, but not by activation of other PARs. PAR-2-APs, administered to rats in vivo, caused a prompt effect on pancreatic exocrine secretion. PAR-2 mRNA, known to be present in pancreatic tissue, was also detected in parotid tissue. Our results indicate that in addition to a potential role in regulating cardiovascular and respiratory functions, PAR-2 may also play a general role in vivo for the direct regulation of glandular exocrine secretion.

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.
