Abstract
BACKGROUND: Dendritic cells (DC) are thought to play a key role in the initiation and maintenance of T cell immunity to inhaled antigens. While the density of DC within the bronchial mucosa is increased in stable asthma, there is little information currently available concerning the effects of allergen inhalation on DC in subjects with asthma. OBJECTIVES: To enumerate changes in the numbers of circulating CD33(+) myeloid DC in asthmatics, before and after allergen challenge. METHODS: Blood DC numbers were enumerated by flow cytometry before and at 3, 6 and 24 h after inhaled allergen and diluent in 10 mild, allergic asthmatic subjects. RESULTS: Blood DC numbers rapidly fell from 3.42 +/- 0.30 x 10(7)/L at baseline, to 2.10 +/- 0.17 x 10(7)/L by 3 h post-challenge (P < 0.01), and remained significantly below baseline values at both 6 and 24 h following allergen challenge. No such changes in DC numbers were noted after diluent challenge. A similar, early fall in circulating lymphocytes was also noted post-allergen challenge, whereas changes in circulating eosinophil and neutrophil numbers occurred more slowly. CONCLUSIONS: A significant proportion of myeloid DC rapidly 'disappear' from the circulation following allergen inhalation, suggesting that margination of circulating myeloid DC, and their recruitment into the airway mucosa, is an important feature of the immune response to inhaled allergen.

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
