Exogenous putrescine affects polyamine and arginine metabolism in rat liver following bile ductus ligation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rat bile duct ligation (BDL) represents a useful method that mimics obstructive extrahepatic cholestasis, which is known to be a frequent disorder in humans. Polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) are one of the key molecules regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. This work aimed to evaluate the potential beneficial properties of putrescine in rat BDL model by studying several biochemical parameters reflecting liver function and polyamine metabolism. Rats that were subjected to BDL were injected with putrescine (150 mg/kg) for 9 days, while in parallel another group with BDL remained untreated. Two control groups were included as well, sham-opened and putrescine-treated group. The following plasma parameters: ALT, AST, γ-GT, ALP, bilirubin, bile acids, as well as liver malondialdehyde and polyamine concentration and the activity of enzymes involved in polyamine metabolism were studied. After BDL, significant alterations in plasma biochemical parameters occurred, where a 9-day putrescine treatment significantly alleviated liver function deterioration. Putrescine also increased liver polyamines' concentrations and polyamine and diamine oxidase activities in rats submitted to BDL. Our results demonstrated, for the first time, that putrescine plays an important role in preserving liver tissue function in rats with experimentally induced cholestasis.

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.
