Delayed preconditioning in cardiac myocytes with respect to development of a proinflammatory phenotype: role of SOD and NOS
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Both superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) have been implicated in delayed preconditioning (DP) to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in the heart. We used isolated cardiac myocytes to test the hypothesis that SOD and NOS may interact in the development of DP. METHODS: Mouse neonatal cardiac myocytes were challenged with anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R; an in vitro counterpart to I/R) and normoxia/normoxia (N/N) served as the control. Two indices of inflammation were measured: oxidant stress (DHR oxidation) and polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) transendothelial migration (cell culture inserts). The role of SOD was assessed using an antisense approach and the role of NOS was assessed using iNOS and eNOS deficient myocytes. RESULTS: Cardiac myocytes exposed to A/R (1) produced more oxidants (intracellular fluorescence emission from 2.0 +/- 0.1 for N/N to 3.0 +/- 0.3 for A/R; P<0.05) and (2) promoted PMN migration (% migration from 8.4 +/- 0.9 for N/N to 14.1 +/- 1.1 for A/R; P<0.05). DP occurred if the myocytes were pretreated with an A/R challenge 24 h earlier. That is, these A/R-induced responses were significantly reduced (fluorescence emission 1.9 +/- 0.1 and % migration 8.4 +/- 0.7; P<0.05 as compared to A/R with no pretreatment). Myocyte Mn-SOD, but not Cu/Zn-SOD, activity increased 24 h after the initial A/R challenge. A Mn-SOD antisense oligonucleotide prevented the development of DP. DP occurred in iNOS, but not eNOS, deficient myocytes. A/R increased mRNA for eNOS, but not iNOS, in wild-type myocytes. A/R increased Mn-SOD protein in both iNOS and eNOS deficient myocytes. However, Mn-SOD activity increased only in iNOS deficient myocytes. CONCLUSIONS: Collectively, these findings suggest that Mn-SOD and eNOS may act in concert in the development of DP in cardiac myocytes.

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.
