Surviving rat distal tubule bicarbonate reabsorption: effects of chronic AT<sub>1</sub>blockade
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To determine the in vivo effects of chronic ANG II type 1 (AT(1))-receptor blockade by losartan (Los) on enhanced unidirectional bicarbonate reabsorption (J(HCO(3))) of surviving distal tubules, nephrectomized rats drank either water or a solution of Los, 7 days before microperfusion. J(HCO(3)) was suppressed by 50% after Los without further reduction by 5 nM concanamycin A (Conc), suggesting that Los suppresses all Conc-sensitive H(+)-ATPase pumping. Indeed, ultrastructural analysis of A-type intercalated cells revealed a 50% reduction of H(+)-ATPase immunogold labeling of the apical plasma membrane, whereas Western blotting showed that H(+)-ATPase protein levels were also reduced by one-half by Los treatment. To identify other transporters sustaining J(HCO(3)), we perfused three inhibitors simultaneously [5-(N, N-dimethyl) amiloride hydrochloride, Conc, Schering 28080] with or without prior Los treatment: J(HCO(3)) was unchanged despite marked reduction of water reabsorption. We conclude enhanced distal tubule J(HCO(3)) of surviving nephrons is largely mediated by AT(1) receptor-dependent synthesis and insertion of apical H(+)-ATPase pumps in A-type intercalated cells.

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.
