5-Oxo-ETE regulates tone of guinea pig airway smooth muscle via activation of Ca<sup>2+</sup>pools and Rho-kinase pathway
Bibliographic record
Abstract
5-Oxo-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-oxo-ETE) is a proinflammatory mediator, but its effects on airway smooth muscle (ASM) have never been assessed. Tension measurements performed on guinea pig ASM showed that 5-oxo-ETE induced sustained concentration-dependent positive inotropic responses (EC50 = 0.89 microM) of somewhat lower amplitude than those induced by carbamylcholine and the thromboxane A2 (TXA2) agonist U-46619. Transient inotropic responses to 5-oxo-ETE were recorded in Ca2+-free medium, suggesting mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. Meanwhile, the sustained contraction, which required Ca2+ entry, was partially blocked by 1 microM nifedipine (an L-type Ca2+ channel blocker) but relatively insensitive to 100 microM Gd3+. The 5-oxo-ETE responses were also inhibited by indomethacin and SC-560 [a cyclooxygenase (COX-1) inhibitor] pretreatments but not by NS-398 (a selective COX-2 inhibitor). The contractile effects of 5-oxo-ETE on ASM were inhibited by the selective TXA2 receptor (TP receptor) antagonist SQ-29548 (-75%) and by 2-(p-amylcinnamoyl) amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid pretreatment, a phospholipase A2 inhibitor (-66%), suggesting that the major part of its effect is mediated by the release of TXA2. ASM responses to 5-oxo-ETE were also blocked by the Rho-kinase inhibitor Y-27632, which also partially inhibited the response to the TP receptor agonist U-46619, suggesting that the contractile response is due in part to Ca2+ sensitization of ASM cell myofilaments.

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.
