Changes in the lymph node microenvironment induced by oncostatin M
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oncostatin M (OM) transforms the lymph node (LN) into a "super lymphoid organ" with 2 striking features: massive thymus-independent T-cell development and major expansion of the memory T-cell pool. We report that T-cell development in the LckOM LN is regulated by a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-dependent neoangiogenesis involving high endothelial venules (HEVs). That LN HEVs are particularlyrich in OM-receptor beta-chain provides aplausible explanation for the fact that extrathymic T-cell development in LckOM mice is limited to the LN. Moreover, we found that increased production of the CCL20 chemokine by LN stromal cells was instrumental in the expansion of the memory phenotype CD4 T-cell pool in LckOM mice. The generality of the latter finding was demonstrated by the fact that CCL20/CCR6 interactions increase the basal proliferation rate of CD62L(lo) CD4 T cells irrespective of their thymic (in non-OM-transgenic mice) or extrathymic (in LckOM mice) origin. To our knowledge, CCL20 is the first molecule found to increase the proliferation of memory phenotype CD4 T cells. These findings identify potential targets for the creation of thymic substitutes (LN HEVs) and for expansion of the CD4 memory T-cell compartment (CCL20).

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.
