Role of superoxide anion in regulating pressor and vascular hypertrophic response to angiotensin II
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Our purpose was to address the role of NAPDH oxidase-derived superoxide anion in the vascular response to ANG II. Blood pressure, aortic superoxide anion, 3-nitrotyrosine, and medial cross-sectional area were compared in wild-type mice and in mice that overexpress human superoxide dismutase (hSOD). The pressor response to ANG II was significantly less in hSOD mice. Superoxide anion levels were increased twofold in ANG II-treated wild-type mice but not in hSOD mice. 3-Nitrotyrosine increased in aortic endothelium and adventitia in wild-type but not hSOD mice. In contrast, aortic medial cross-sectional area increased 50% with ANG II in hSOD mice, comparable to wild-type mice. The lower pressor response to ANG II in the mice expressing hSOD is consistent with a pressor role of superoxide anion in wild-type mice, most likely because it reacts with nitric oxide. Despite preventing the increase in superoxide anion and 3-nitrotyrosine, the aortic hypertrophic response to ANG II in vivo was unaffected by hSOD.

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.
