Presence of High Affinity Dopamine Receptors in Estrone-Induced, Prolactin-Secreting Rat Pituitary Adenomas: A Model for Human Prolactinomas
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Adenomatous cells obtained from a pituitary tumor induced in Fisher 344/Lis rats by the subcutaneous implantation of estrone (E1) were found to secrete large amounts of prolactin (PRL). The secretion of PRL was stimulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and low concentrations of dopamine (DA), while micromolar concentrations of DA were inhibitory. High affinity binding sites for 3H-spiroperidol (3H-SPIR) were found to be present on the cells and to conform to the criteria of dopaminergic receptors. An adenylate cyclase (AC) present in the cells could be activated by a guanyl nucleotide and was inhibited by DA in the presence of guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP). Fractionation of the adenomatous cells by Percoll gradients identified two groups of cells capable of secreting PRL and bearing 3H-SPIR binding sites. These data indicate that this rat pituitary adenoma may be a model for human prolactinomas that might be utilized for the study of the mechanism of action of dopaminergic drugs.

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.
