Chronic systemic delivery of angiopoietin-2 reveals a possible independent angiogenic effect
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Angiopoietin-2 has been implicated in the angiogenic response; however, this response has been tied to the expression of VEGF, and an independent angiogenic role has yet to be described. In this report, we detail the generation of transgenic mice that conditionally express angiopoietin-2 in the liver, resulting in sustained increases in circulating levels. These animals survive gestation and present with several vascular abnormalities, including an increase in the diameter of myocardial coronary vessels and a reduction in the density of endocardial vessels. In the lung, prominent increases in vessel diameter were observed. These vascular remodeling changes occurred in the absence of any apparent increase in VEGF expression. Our results illustrate that chronic systemic delivery of angiopoietin-2 induces angiogenesis in the absence of increased VEGF expression and that angiopoietin-2 promotes myocardial coronary vessel remodeling.

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.
