Pathogenic Thyroglobulin Peptides as Model Antigens: Insights on the Induction and Maintenance of Autoimmune Thyroiditis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In recent years, the discovery of pathogenic thyroglobulin (Tg) peptides has given a new impetus to study, at the basic level, mechanisms of induction and immunoregulation of autoimmune thyroiditis. The genetic control of the immune response against defined Tg epitopes and the diversity of the T-cell receptor repertoire recruited for their recognition were among the first issues examined. Some of these epitopes contained hormonogenic sites, i.e. thyroxine residues, and thus offered an excellent opportunity to study how post-translational modifications such as iodination, can influence induction of thyroiditogenic cells. The delineation of pathogenic Tg determinants also enabled the search for "molecular mimics" i.e. peptides of microbial origin that may be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. In addition, factors promoting the generation of pathogenic epitopes during Tg processing in antigen presenting cells could now be systematically investigated. This review summarizes recent findings in these areas.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
