In the current study, we introduced a unique method for identifying and segmenting oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) nuclei, concentrating on those predicted to have significant CAF-1/p60 protein expression. Our suggested model uses the StarDist architecture, a deep-learning framework designed for biomedical image segmentation tasks. The training dataset comprises painstakingly annotated masks created from tissue sections previously stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and then restained with immunohistochemistry (IHC) for p60 protein. Our algorithm uses subtle morphological and colorimetric H&E cellular characteristics to predict CAF-1/p60 IHC expression in OSCC nuclei. The StarDist-based architecture performs exceptionally well in localizing and segmenting H&E nuclei, previously identified by IHC-based ground truth. In summary, our innovative approach harnesses deep learning and multimodal information to advance the automated analysis of OSCC nuclei exhibiting specific protein expression patterns. This methodology holds promise for expediting accurate pathological assessment and gaining deeper insights into the role of CAF-1/p60 protein within the context of oral cancer progression. |
