Autoimmune Variant<i>PTPN22</i>C1858T Is Associated With Impaired Responses to Influenza Vaccination
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High-affinity-antibody production, T-cell activation, and interferon upregulation all contribute to protective immunity that occurs in humans following influenza immunization. Hematopoietic cell-specific PTPN22 encodes lymphoid phosphatase (Lyp), which regulates lymphocyte antigen receptor and pattern recognition receptor (PRR) signaling. A PTPN22 variant, R620W (LypW), predisposes to autoimmune and infectious diseases and confers altered signaling through antigen receptors and PRRs. We tested the hypothesis that LypW-bearing humans would have diminished immune response to trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV). LypW carriers exhibited decreased induction of influenza virus-specific CD4(+) T cells expressing effector cytokines and failed to increase antibody affinity following TIV receipt. No differences between LypW carriers and noncarriers were observed in virus-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses, early interferon transcriptional responses, or myeloid antigen-presenting cell costimulatory molecule upregulation. The association of LypW with defects in TIV-induced CD4(+) T-cell expansion and antibody affinity maturation suggests that LypW may predispose individuals to have a diminished capacity to generate protective immunity against influenza virus.

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.
