Acute hibernation decreases myocardial pyruvate carboxylation and citrate release
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the well-perfused heart, pyruvate carboxylation accounts for 3-6% of the citric acid cycle (CAC) flux, and CAC carbon is lost via citrate release. We investigated the effects of an acute reduction in coronary flow on these processes and on the tissue content of CAC intermediates. Measurements were made in an open-chest anesthetized swine model. Left anterior descending coronary artery blood flow was controlled by a extracorporeal perfusion circuit, and flow was decreased by 40% for 80 min to induce myocardial hibernation (n = 8). An intracoronary infusion of [U-(13)C(3)]lactate and [U-(13)C(3)]pyruvate was given to measure the entry of pyruvate into the CAC through pyruvate carboxylation from the (13)C-labeled isotopomers of CAC intermediates. Compared with normal coronary flow, myocardial hibernation resulted in parallel decreases of 65% and 79% in pyruvate carboxylation and net citrate release by the myocardium, respectively, and maintenance of the CAC intermediate content. Elevation of the arterial pyruvate concentration by 1 mM had no effect. Thus a 40% decrease in coronary blood flow resulted in a concomitant decrease in pyruvate carboxylation and citrate release as well as maintenance of the CAC intermediates.

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.
