Reverse flux through cardiac NADP<sup>+</sup>-isocitrate dehydrogenase under normoxia and ischemia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Little is known about the role of mitochondrial NADP(+)-isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP(+)-ICDH) in the heart, where this enzyme shows its highest expression and activity. We tested the hypothesis that in the heart, NADP(+)-ICDH operates in the reverse direction of the citric acid cycle (CAC) and thereby may contribute to the fine regulation of CAC activity (Sazanov and Jackson, FEBS Lett 344: 109-116, 1994). We documented a reverse flux through this enzyme in rat hearts perfused with the medium-chain fatty acid octanoate using [U-(13)C(5)]glutamate and mass isotopomer analysis of tissue citrate (Comte et al., J Biol Chem 272: 26117-26124, 1997). In this study, we assessed the significance of our previous finding by perfusing hearts with long-chain fatty acids and tested the effects of changes in O(2) supply. We showed that under all of these conditions citrate was enriched in an isotopomer containing five (13)C atoms. This isotopomer can only be explained by substrate flux through reversal of the NADP(+)-ICDH reaction, which is evaluated at 3-7% of flux through citrate synthase. Small variations in reversal fluxes induced by low-flow ischemia that mimicked hibernation occurred despite major changes in contractile function and O(2) consumption of the heart as well as citrate and succinate release rates and tissue levels. Our data show a reverse flux through NADP(+)-ICDH and support its hypothesized role in the fine regulation of CAC activity in the normoxic and O(2)-deprived heart.

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.
