Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Immunodetection of beta-catenin accumulation in the nucleus is the most direct and reliable method to determine the intensity and the spatial/temporal patterns of Wnt-dependent signaling activity. Due to the large size of the Xenopus embryo, staining must be done on sections. We present here a simple protocol to prepare cryosections and produce high-quality images of the early embryo using immunofluorescence. We also provide comments on various conceptual and technical issues from fixation to image collection, which may assist in optimizing immunodetection in embryos and tissues beyond the specific scope of beta-catenin localization.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
