Ultrastructure of mitochondria in various human pituitary tumor types
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The mitochondria, the major powerhouse for cellular functions, are predominantly ovoid or rod‐shaped cytoplasmic organelles enclosed by double outer membrane. The cristae, are formed by the infoldings of the inner membranes. Morphologic variations in size, shape, number of cristae exist, attuned to the function of the resident organ. Specific ultrastructural features characteristic of certain tumor types may occur. Such mitochondrial alterations were recorded by EM in more than 5000 various types of surgically removed pituitary adenomas. Changes are chiefly quantitative: A) size and density of internal structures (large/small; active/functionally suppressed prolactinoma); B) increase in number, i.e. oncocytic change. Generally occurring within the endocrine system owing to functional decline. Most prevalent in gonadotroph adenomas lineage. Specific alterations: A) giant mitochondria: specific marker of acidophil stem cell adenoma. With preservation of the double membranes, progressive enlargement and disappearance of the internal compartment and occurrence of unidentified tubular structures take place; B) Mitochondrial enlargement and homogenization of the entire internal compartment evident only in gonadotroph adenoma. C) Close spatial association of mitochondria and RER. It occurs only in silent adenoma subtype 3. The specific alterations may be used as ultrastructural markers.

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.
