Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Emodin is traditionally used as a laxative and is found to increase or decrease the contractility of intestinal smooth muscle in low doses and high doses, respectively. In this study, we propose that bidirectional regulation (BR) on the contractility of jejunal smooth muscle (CJSM) is inducible by emodin in the absence of control by the central nervous system. The results indicated that emodin-induced BR had the following characteristics. A stimulatory effect on CJSM was induced by emodin at 7 low contractile states, and an inhibitory effect was induced on CJSM at 7 high contractile states. Emodin-induced BR on myosin phosphorylation was also observed. BR was not observed in the presence of tetrodotoxin, suggesting that enteric nervous system is required for producing BR. The stimulatory effect of emodin on CJSM was abolished by atropine and diphenhydramine, respectively, suggesting that BR was correlated with cholinergic and histamine system while jejunal smooth muscle was at low contractile state. The inhibitory effect of emodin on CJSM was abolished by phentolamine, propranolol, and L-NG-nitroarginine (L-NNA), respectively, suggesting that BR was related to adrenergic hyperactivity and with a nitric oxide relaxing mechanism while jejunal smooth muscle was in a high contractile state. The exact mechanism, however, needs further investigation.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
