Vagal CCK and 5-HT<sub>3</sub>receptors are unlikely to mediate LPS or IL-1β-induced fever
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Previous studies suggested that peripheral immune mediators may involve intermediates acting on the vagus nerve, such as CCK or serotonin (5-HT). We have therefore investigated a possible role for vagal CCK-A and 5-HT(3) receptors in the febrile response after intraperitoneal human recombinant interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Unanesthetized, adult male rats instrumented with abdominal thermistors were given intraperitoneal CCK-8 sulfate (100 or 150 microgram/kg) or 2-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine maleate (4 mg/kg). In other experiments, rats were treated with either antagonists to the 5-HT(3) receptor (ondansetron HCl; 100 microgram/kg) or the CCK-A receptor (L-364,718, 100 or 200 microgram/kg) in combination with LPS or IL-1beta. CCK administration caused a short-lived hypothermia, but interference with the action of endogenous CCK at CCK-A receptors was without effect on IL-1beta- or LPS-induced fever. Neither activation of 5-HT(3) receptors nor blockade of 5-HT(3) receptors affected body temperature or LPS fever. Taken together, our data support the idea that vagal afferents responsive to pyrogenic cytokines may be different from those responsive to CCK or 5-HT.

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.
