Upregulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression in the Kidney Could Be Reversed Following Treadmill Exercise Training in Type I Diabetic Rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Nephropathy is a significant complication of diabetes mellitus, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Exercise training has been shown to have renoprotective effects in diabetes. Unregulated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been demonstrated in the diabetic kidney. Thus, the aim of our study is to illustrate the impact of endurance exercise training on the renal VEGF expression in type I diabetic rats. Methods: Forty normal Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the following equal groups: sedentary control (SC), exercised control (EC), sedentary diabetic (SD) rats and exercised diabetic (ED) rats. Then, diabetes mellitus was induced by streptozotocin in the rats in the two diabetic groups. The expression of VEGF in the renal tissue in each of the four different groups was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results: Renal VEGF expression was significantly (P < 0.01) higher in SD compared with that in SC. However, exercise training significantly (P < 0.01) reduced VEGF expression in the renal tissue in ED compared with that in SD. Conclusion: Our present data suggest that treadmill exercise training suppressed diabetes-induced upregulation in the renal VEGF expression.

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.
