Seasonal oxidative capacity of skeletal muscles in hibernating Daurian ground squirrels (<i>Spermophilus</i> <i>dauricus</i>)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We investigated the mechanism of high oxidative capacity of skeletal muscles in hibernating Daurian ground squirrels (Spermophilus dauricus Brandt, 1843). Myoglobin (Mb) levels, as well as citrate synthase and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities, were measured by spectrophotometry. Mb content in the soleus (SOL) muscle lasted from the beginning of hibernation to spring. Mb content in SOL was 87% higher in the hibernating group than in the summer group. Mb content in the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle stayed at similar levels during the different periods of the year. Citrate synthase activity in SOL was 30% higher in the hibernating group than in the summer group. Meanwhile, citrate synthase activity in EDL did not change during hibernation. LDH activity in SOL was not different between the hibernating group and the summer active group, whereas LDH activity in EDL increased significantly (up to 11%) in the 2 days arousal after hibernation group compared with the hibernating group. We conclude that high oxidative capacity is provided by increased oxygen storage capacity of slow-twitch muscle fibers rather than from fast-twitch muscle fibers in hibernating animals.

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.
