Endothelin antagonist reduces hemodynamic responses to vasopressin in DOCA-salt hypertension
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The contribution of endothelin to the changes in blood pressure, cardiac output, and total peripheral resistance evoked by arginine vasopressin and angiotensin II was investigated in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertensive rats by infusing the peptides intravenously before and after pretreatment with the endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan. Blood pressure was recorded with radiotelemetry devices and cardiac output was recorded with ultrasonic transit time flow probes in conscious unrestrained animals. The dose-related decreases in cardiac output induced by vasopressin and angiotensin II were unaffected by bosentan. In contrast, the dose-related increases in total peripheral resistance evoked by vasopressin were blunted in both DOCA-salt hypertensive and sham normotensive rats, but this effect of bosentan was greater in the DOCA-salt hypertensive group. In contrast with vasopressin, bosentan failed to change hemodynamic responses to angiotensin II. The exaggerated vascular responsiveness (total peripheral resistance) of the DOCA-salt hypertensive group to vasopressin was largely abolished by bosentan. These results suggest that endothelin contributes to the hemodynamic effects of vasopressin but not angiotensin II in the DOCA-salt model of hypertension.

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.
