Ultrastructural response of pulmonary intravascular macrophages to exogenous oestrogen in the bovine lung: translocation of the surface‐coat and enhanced cell membrane plasticity and angiogenesis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The pulmonary intravascular macrophages (PIMs) of domestic ungulates are recognised by their specific surface coat, consisting of linearly arranged globules along the external leaf of the plasma membrane. The coat is sensitive to in vitro digestion with lipolytic lipase (LPL), intravenous heparin and clinical exposure to halothane anaesthesia. The sensitivity to these experimental manipulations suggests that the globules of the coat are predominantly composed of lipoproteins (LDL). The present administration of oestradiol proprionate in castrated male calves potentiated the translocation of the surface coat into the endocytotic pathway of the PIMs. Concurrently with mobilisation of the coat, the plasma membrane was thrown into prominent arrays of lamellipodial extensions. The sprawling macrophages made extensive adhesive contacts with the lining endothelium of the capillaries. Consequently, the endothelial cells were highly attenuated and precariously maintained the integrity of the vascular wall. At some focal points, the vascular wall was penetrated by the filopodial processes of PIMs, which protruded into the perivascular space. Furthermore, there were signs of neovascularisation in the form of overt mitotic changes, sprouting and precursor capillary formation. It is conceivable that the evolving profile of angiogenesis is due to the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) paracrine function of PIMs. Endothelial cell specificity has been considered an important advantage of VEGF for neovascularisation. It allows pleotrophic response of endothelial cells to proliferate and to assemble into endothelial tubes.

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.
