Autoantibodies to early endosome antigen (EEA1) produce a staining pattern resembling cytoplasmic anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (C-ANCA)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Autoantibodies to EEA1 have been described in patients with neurological diseases, subacute cutaneous lupus and a variety of other conditions, including a patient with Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). EEA1 is a hydrophilic peripheral membrane protein transiently associated with the cytoplasmic face of early endosomes. Antibodies to EEA1 produce a staining pattern that resembles the C-ANCA pattern produced by anti-proteinase 3 (PR3) antibodies in WG sera. Co-localization studies show incomplete overlap of the staining produced by anti-EEA1 with anti-PR3. We showed that 0/40 unselected sera, from a cohort of WG patients and antibodies to PR3, reacted with EEA1. In addition, 1/15 sera that have a C-ANCA staining pattern but do not react with PR3 in an ELISA, immunoprecipitated the recombinant EEA1 protein. We conclude that although antibodies to EEA1 produce a staining pattern that resembles anti-PR3 and C-ANCA, antibodies to EEA1 in WG are rare. However, some C-ANCA+ sera that do not react with PR3 may contain EEA1 autoantibodies.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
