The primary defect in experimental ileitis originates from a nonhematopoietic source
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The initiating etiologic factor in Crohn's disease (CD) remains unclear. SAMP1/YitFc (SAMP) mice develop chronic ileitis similar to human CD. We used bone marrow chimeras to determine if SAMP ileitis results from a primary immunological defect or from dysregulated mucosal immunity secondary to intrinsic, nonhematopoietic (e.g., epithelial) dysfunction. SAMP mice receiving wild-type (AKR) BM developed severe ileitis, whereas SAMP BM did not confer ileitis to WT recipients. WT lymphocytes from reconstituted SAMP mice resembled native SAMP populations in regard to surface phenotype and cytokine production. Ilea from native SAMP mice and SAMP recipients of wild-type BM displayed decreased epithelial barrier resistance ex vivo and increased epithelial permeability in vivo compared to native WT mice and AKR recipients of SAMP BM. This permeability defect preceded the development of ileal inflammation, was present in the absence of commensal bacteria, and was accompanied by altered ileal mRNA expression of the tight junction proteins claudin-2 and occludin. Our results provide evidence that the primary defect conferring ileitis in SAMP mice originates from a nonhematopoietic source. Generation of pathogenic lymphocytes is a consequence of this defect and does not reflect intrinsic proinflammatory leukocyte properties. Decreased barrier function suggests that defects in the epithelium may represent the primary source of SAMP ileitis susceptibility.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
