Expression of cytokine mRNA in canine anal furunculosis lesions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The pattern of expression of cytokine mRNA in the lesions of anal furunculosis was evaluated in tissue biopsies from 15 dogs, and compared with the pattern in control skin samples from 24 dogs, by reverse-transcriptase PCR using canine cytokine-specific primers and a semi-quantitative multiplex PCR assay. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) was detected in 11 of the 15 affected dogs but in only one of the controls, and interferon-gamma was detected in 14 of the affected dogs but none of the controls. In contrast, IL-4 was detected only in one of the affected dogs. Increased expression of mRNA for IL-1beta, IL-6, tumour necrosis factor alpha, IL-8, IL-10 and transforming growth factor beta1 was detected in the biopsies from the lesions of anal furunculosis relative to the control tissues (P < 0.05).

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.
