Abstract
BACKGROUND: Despite their histological resemblance to colorectal adenocarcinomas, there is little information about the molecular events involved in the pathogenesis of intestinal-type sinonasal adenocarcinomas (ITACs). AIMS: To evaluate the possible role of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) gene defects or disruptions of the E cadherin-beta catenin complex in ITAC by investigating the immunohistochemical expression of the MMR gene products, beta catenin, and E cadherin in a group of sporadic ITACs. METHODS: Ten sporadic cases of ITAC were stained with antibodies against MLH1, MSH2, MSH3, MSH6, beta catenin, and E cadherin. RESULTS: Nine cases showed strong nuclear expression of MLH1, whereas one case showed moderate staining. All 10 cases were strongly positive for MSH2 and MSH3. MSH6 was strong in nine cases, and moderate in one. Membranous beta catenin expression was strong in all 10 cases, and no case showed cytoplasmic or nuclear staining. E cadherin was strong in seven cases, and moderate in three cases. CONCLUSIONS: The preserved nuclear expression of MLH1, MSH2, MSH3, and MSH6 suggests that mutations or promoter methylation of MMR genes do not play a role in the pathogenesis of ITAC. The strong membranous staining for E cadherin and beta catenin and lack of abnormal cytoplasmic or nuclear expression is in keeping with the preservation of E cadherin-beta catenin complexes and beta catenin pathways.

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 it
