EFFECT OF AMIFOSTINE AND DEXRAZOXANE ON BONE MASS OF DOXORUBICIN TREATED MALE RATS.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the effect of amifostine and dexrazoxane on bone mass of the vertebrae and femurs of doxorubicin treated male rats. Methods: Amifostine, Doxorubicin and Dexrazoxane were purchased from SMBD-Jewish General Hospital Pharmacy. Lactating Sprague Dawley dams with 14 male pups were purchased from Charles River Canada. At neonate day 10, rat pups were randomly divided into 4 groups of n=5. Pups were injected once intraperitoneally with either Phosphate Saline Buffer 1X (saline), or drugs, AMF (50 mg/kg), AMF + DOX (50 mg/kg +3 mg/ kg), or with AMF + DXR + DOX (50 mg/kg + 60 mg + 3 mg/kg, 20:1 DXR to DOX ratio). AMF and DXR were injected 30 minutes prior to the DOX injection. After injection, rat pups were returned to their mothers until weaning on neonate day 22. Rats were then sacrificed at day 38 (28 Post-Injection, PI). Bone mineral density (BMD) and micro computed tomography were analyzed. Results: Dissection of male pups days 1, 5 or 9 post-injection did not reveal any intestinal or organ damage. AMF treatment alone led to a slight but not significant increase in the right femoral, left femoral and lumbar vertebral BMDs. Similarly, AMF + DOX or AMF + DXR + DOX treated rats had no significant change in either femoral and vertebrae BMD. Conclusions: We recently showed that a single injection of DOX in young female rats is associated with low bone turnover resulting in vertebrae and femur bone growth deficits. However, no such a difference was detected when similarly treated males were examined. The role of sex steroid hormone at this age is unclear as sex hormones level are very low in neonates at the time of injection and the rats, male and female, were sacrificed prior to puberty. To define the role of sex hormone in the observed gender-specific drug susceptibility we plan on comparing the response of intact to ovariectomized female rats to the drug regimen.

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.
