Abstract
The tumor necrosis factor family ligands, LIGHT (lymphotoxin like, exhibits inducible expression and competes with HSV glycoprotein D for HVEM, a receptor expressed by T lymphocytes), 4-1BBL and CD70, are found in the same gene cluster on mouse chromosome 17. Although the roles of 4-1BB-4-1BBL and CD27-CD70 interactions in anti-viral T cell responses have been well established, the role of LIGHT in T cell activation/expansion in vivo is less clear. Under conditions that were previously employed to demonstrate a role for 4-1BBL in CD8+ T cell memory, wild-type and LIGHT-/- mice were infected with influenza A virus and primary and memory/recall responses were measured at various time points thereafter. Neither primary expansion nor memory/recall CD8+ T cell responses were affected by the absence of LIGHT, as measured up to 2 months post-infection. CD4+ T cell responses were also unaffected by LIGHT deficiency. Furthermore, we found that LIGHT played no role in the induction of influenza-specific IgG1 and IgG2a serum antibodies. Taken together, these data suggest that LIGHT is dispensable for the acquired immune response to influenza virus in mice with no effect on the induction, maintenance or reactivation of CD8+ T cell memory.

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
