Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5) is a marker for neuroendocrine cells but has not been used for pancreatic islet cells and pancreatic endocrine tumors (PETs). Antibodies for PGP 9.5 are now commercially available for immunocytochemical study, with which immunostaining may be able to differentiate between benign and malignant PETs. RESULTS: All 4 kinds of normal islet cells were positively immunostained for PGP 9.5-moderately positive for β-cells and strongly positive for δ-cells, whereas ganglion cells were immunostained more strongly than islet cells. Nine of 12 insulinomas were moderately to strongly positive for PGP 9.5. Two glucagonomas, 3 of 6 pancreatic polypeptidomas (PPomas), 3 of 9 gastrinomas, and 2 of 4 non-functioning PETs were negative for PGP 9.5. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-four PETs were immunocytochemically stained for PGP 9.5 using a rabbit polyclonal antibody together with immunostaining for 4 pancreatic hormones, chromogranin A (CgA), and gastrin. PETs consisted of 12 insulinomas, 2 glucagonomas, 1 somatostatinoma (SRIFoma), 6 PPomas, 9 gastrinomas, and 4 non-functioning PETs. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION: PGP 9.5 immunostaining was universally positive for 4 kinds of islet cells and was moderately to strongly positive for 9 of 12 (75%) insulinomas. All 22 non-β-cell PETs were negative or weakly positive for PGP 9.5, and thus negative or weakly positive PGP 9.5 immunostaining may be used as a marker for potential malignancy and poor prognosis for non-β-cell PETs.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
