Allergen-induced Increases in Bone Marrow T Lymphocytes and Interleukin-5 Expression in Subjects with Asthma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Inhaled allergen challenge of subjects with atopic asthmatic increases bone marrow eosinophil progenitor cells. Interleukin-5 (IL-5) specifically induces growth and maturation of eosinophils. This study examined the effect of allergen challenge on the number of bone marrow total and CD3+ cells expressing IL-5 protein and IL-5 mRNA in subjects with asthma who developed either allergen-induced isolated early responses, or early and late asthmatic responses (dual responders). At 24 hours after allergen challenge, dual responders had significantly greater blood and airway eosinophilia compared with early responders. There were significant increases in the percentage of bone marrow CD3+ cells (p < 0.005) in both groups. However, there were significant differences in the increases in bone marrow IL-5 mRNA+ (p < 0.005), CD3+ (p < 0.005), and IL-5 mRNA+ CD3+ (p < 0.005) cells between the dual and early responder groups. These results suggest that, in subjects with atopic asthma, inhaled allergen causes trafficking of T lymphocytes to the bone marrow, and that in subjects who develop late responses and greater blood and airway eosinophilia after inhalation of allergen, there is a significant increase in the ability of bone marrow cells, particularly T lymphocytes, to produce IL-5.

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.
