Relationship of hypoxia to metastatic ability in rodent tumours
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The relationship between tumour oxygenation in vivo and metastatic potential was investigated in 2 rodent tumour models, KHT-C fibrosarcoma and SCC-VII squamous cell carcinoma. The oxygen status in these rodent tumours transplanted intramuscularly in syngeneic mice was measured using the Eppendorf pO(2)Histograph. The results indicate a considerable heterogeneity in oxygenation between individual tumours within each tumour cell line. At different tumour sizes, animals were killed and lung lobes were examined for macroscopic and microscopic lung metastases. In the KHT-C tumours, a significant increase in early pulmonary metastasis formation was observed in mice with hypoxic primary tumours. Hypoxic SCC-VII tumours did not give rise to enhanced lung metastasis formation despite oxygenation in a range similar to the KHT-C tumours. However, the overall metastasis incidence in the SCC-VII model was very low. The results obtained in the KHT-C model, which show that hypoxic tumours are more likely to metastasize, are in agreement with recent clinical data suggesting that a hypoxic environment might be implicated in metastatic ability of human tumours.

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.
