Abstract
OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is altered in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) during the phases of prehypertension, developing hypertension, and established hypertension and assessed the putative role of insulinlike growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) in Ang II-mediated actions. METHODS: The VSMCs from SHR and Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) aged 4 (prehypertensive), 9 (developing hypertension), and 16 (established hypertension) weeks were studied. The ROS production and NAD(P)H oxidase activation were determined by fluorescence and chemiluminescence, respectively. The role of IGF-1R was assessed with the selective inhibitor AG1024. The ROS bioavailability was manipulated with Tiron (10(-5) mol/L) and diphenylene iodonium (DPI) (10(-6) mol/L). RESULTS: Angiotensin II dose dependently increased ROS production in WKY and SHR at all ages. The Ang II-induced responses were greater in SHR versus WKY at 9 and 16 weeks (P < .05). The Ang II-stimulated ROS increase was greater in 9- and 16-week-old SHR versus 4-week SHR (P < .05). These effects were reduced by AG 1024. Basal NAD(P)H oxidase activity was higher in VSMCs from 9-week-old SHR versus 4-week-old rats (P < .05). Angiotensin II induced a significant increase in oxidase activity in VSMCs from 9- and 16-week-old SHR (P < .001), without influencing responses in cells from 4-week-old SHR. Pretreatment of 9- and 16-week-old SHR cells with AG1024 reduced Ang II-mediated NAD(P)H oxidase activation (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Basal and Ang II-induced NAD(P)H-driven ROS generation are enhanced in VSMCs from SHR during development of hypertension, but not in cells from prehypertensive rats. Transactivation of IGF-1R by Ang II may be important in vascular oxidative excess in the development of hypertension in SHR.

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 it
