Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common malignant intraocular tumor in adults. Despite the high accuracy of clinical diagnosis and advances in local treatment, more than 50% of UM patients develop metastasis within 10 years of initial diagnosis. NM23 is one of the human metastasis suppressor genes. Reduced nm23-H1 expression is correlated with high metastatic potential in many different cancers. The purpose of this study is to investigate the expression of nm23-H1 in UM and its potential value as a prognostic marker. Immunostaining of nm23-H1 was verified in five human UM cell lines with different metastatic potentials. The expression level of nm23-H1 mRNA was evaluated with one-step quantitative real-time PCR. The invasion ability of the cell lines was assessed before and after silencing nm23-H1 with small interference RNA. Thirty-two cases of paraffin-embedded specimens of human UM were immunostained with nm23-H1 monoclonal antibody. The immunostaining was evaluated in a semiquantitative fashion based on extent and intensity. The real-time PCR results of five human UM cell lines showed that expression of nm23-H1 was higher in cell lines with low metastatic potential compared with those with high metastatic potential (P<0.05). The invasive ability of the UM cell lines increased after silencing nm23-H1 expression with small interference RNA (P<0.05). The immunostaining of nm23-H1 was cytoplasmic in all cell lines and UM patients samples. The increased immunostaining intensity of nm23-H1 in patients' samples was associated with better survival rate (Kaplan-Meier test P=0.0097). The expression of nm23-H1 was not correlated with other prognostic factors. It can be concluded that nm23-H1 may be a prognostic marker to predict the survival rate of UM patients and it has the potential to identify high-risk patients.

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.
