Role of CD47 in the Induction of Human Naive T Cell Anergy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We recently reported that CD47 ligation inhibited IL-2 release by umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells activated in the presence of IL-12, but not IL-4, preventing the induction of IL-12Rbeta(2) expression and the acquisition of Th1, but not the Th2 phenotype. Here we show that in the absence of exogenous cytokine at priming, CD47 ligation of umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells promotes the development of hyporesponsive T cells. Naive cells were treated with CD47 mAb for 3 days, expanded in IL-2 for 9-12 days, and restimulated by CD3 and CD28 coengagement. Effector T cells generated under these conditions were considered to be anergic because they produced a reduced amount of IL-2 at the single-cell level and displayed an impaired capacity 1) to proliferate, 2) to secrete Th1/Th2 cytokines, and 3) to respond to IL-2, IL-4, or IL-12. Moreover, CD47 mAb strongly suppressed IL-2 production and IL-2Ralpha expression in primary cultures and IL-2 response of activated naive T cells. Induction of anergy by CD47 mAb was IL-10 independent, whereas inclusion of IL-2 and IL-4, but not IL-7, at priming fully restored T cell activation. Furthermore, CD28 costimulation prevented induction of anergy. Thus, CD47 may represent a potential target to induce anergy and prevent undesired Th0/Th1 responses such as graft vs host diseases, allograft rejection, or autoimmune diseases.

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.
