Chronotropic response to (±)-CGP12177 in right atria of stressed rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Foot-shock stress changes the sensitivity of the rat right atria to β 1 - and β 2 -adrenoceptor (AR) agonists. We investigated whether the same stress protocol also changes the atrial sensitivity to the non conventional agonist, (±)-CGP12177. Concentration-response curves to (±)-CGP12177, a β 1 - and β 2 -adrenoceptor antagonist with agonist properties at the putative β 4 -adrenoceptors, were obtained in the absence and presence of propranolol (200 nM or 2 µM), CGP20712A 10 nM plus ICI118,551 50 nM, or CGP20712A (1 µM or 3 µM), in right atria from rats submitted to three daily foot-shock sessions (120 mA pulses of 1.0 s duration applied at random intervals of 5-25 s over 30 min) and killed after the third session. The pD 2 for (±)-CGP12177 was not influenced by foot-shock stress. The stimulant effect of (±)-CGP12177 was resistant to blockade by 200 nM and 2 µM (±)-propranolol, and to combined blockade by CGP20712A and ICI118,551. However, in right atria from stressed rats given 200 nM propranolol, the concentration-response curve to the agonist was shifted 2.0-fold to the right. CGP20712A shifted the concentration-response curve to (±)-CGP12177 to the right by 4.6- (1 µM) and 19-fold (3 µM) in atria of control rats, and by 2.2- (1 µM) and 43-fold (3 µM) in atria of stressed rats. Maximum response to CGP12177 was not affected by propranolol or CGP20712A in concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 10 µM. These results show that the chronotropic effect of (±)-CGP12177 is mediated by atypical β 4 -adrenoceptors. In constrast with to β 1 -and (or) β 2 -AR, this receptor is resistant to the effects of foot-shock stress, suggesting that the putative β 4 -AR is a different receptor from a low affinity state of β 1 -adrenoceptor, as previously proposed, unless both proposed isoforms of β 1 -adrenoceptor show independent stress-induced behavior.Key words: putative β 4 -adrenoceptor, low affinity β 1 -adrenoceptor isoform, stress, right atria, chronotropic response.

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.
