Selective Purkinje cell ectopia in the cerebellum of the <i>Weaver</i> mouse
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The adult mouse cerebellar vermis consists of four transverse zones, each of which is further subdivided into parasagittal stripes. In the adult weaver (wv/wv) mouse, the zebrin II expression pattern in the cerebellar vermis is abnormal, consistent with the absence of a central zone (approximately lobules VI/VII). Because the small, heat shock protein HSP25 is a constitutive marker of parasagittal bands of Purkinje cells in the caudal central zone and the nodular zone (approximately lobules IX/X), we used HSP25 immunocytochemistry to show that the patterning abnormalities in wv/wv reflect selective Purkinje cell ectopia rather than the absence of the central zone. A specific HSP25-immunopositive Purkinje cell ectopia within the central zone was identified. Symmetrical clusters of HSP25-immunopositive Purkinje cells, which presumably would have formed the parasagittal stripes in the wild type, are present ectopically on either side of the midline in wv/wv. In contrast, in the nodular zone, HSP25-immunopositive Purkinje cells form a near-monolayer and are organized into parasagittal stripes. We therefore conclude that specific Purkinje cell clusters in the wv/wv cerebellum fail to disperse and that this ectopia contributes to the topographical abnormalities.

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.
