Abstract
Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) -G is expressed on trophoblast cells during pregnancy, suggesting a role in protection of the semiallogeneic fetus. Published data suggest that HLA-G protects a cell against natural killer cell lysis. It has been hypothesized that HLA-G may also protect the fetus by preventing allo-cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses. To test this hypothesis, we assayed the effects of various concentrations of purified HLA-G on CTL response in a mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) system. We found that concentrations > or =0.1 microg/ml of HLA-G suppressed the allo-CTL response by 30-100% over the control, but, paradoxically, concentrations of 0.01-0.05 microg/ml of HLA-G augmented the allo-CTL response by 25-50% over the control. Concentrations < or = 0.001 microg/ml HLA-G had no effect. Addition of HLA-G to preprimed allo-CTL effector cells did not affect their killing ability. Allo-CTL suppressive doses of HLA-G induced a T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokine response, whereas allo-CTL-enhancing doses of HLA-G induced a Th1-type cytokine response. HLA-G purified from first-trimester placenta does not affect allo-proliferative responses nor does it alter the percentage of CD4+ or CD8+ T cells in MLCs. These findings support a potential role for HLA-G-mediated suppression of allo-CTL formation in normal pregnancies. In addition, the effects observed at lower concentrations of HLA-G may have interesting implications for the condition of pre-eclampsia in which concentrations of this HLA class I molecule are reduced.

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 it
