Distinct Uroplakin II Staining Pattern in Apocrine Breast Carcinoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Uroplakin II (UPII) has been shown as a highly specific marker of urothelial carcinoma; however, it can also stain subtypes of apocrine-differentiated breast carcinoma. Given that urothelium and breast epithelium share other common immunohistochemical markers, such as CK7 and GATA3, this can lead to a potential diagnostic pitfall. We stained a cohort of triple-negative breast cancer with UPII. Compared with the diffuse, cytoplasmic staining in urothelial carcinoma, UPII was positive in 38.9% of apocrine carcinoma (7/18) with a course, granular cytoplasmic staining pattern and negative in all nonapocrine triple-negative breast cancer cases. Furthermore, the same staining pattern was present in all apocrine metaplasia of the breast (4/4) and apocrine sweat glands in normal skin (6/6). This distinct subcellular localization of UPII staining in breast carcinoma can offer a potential solution to the above diagnostic pitfall.

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.
