Inflammatory bowel disease microbiotas alter gut CD4 T-cell homeostasis and drive colitis in mice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract To examine the functional contribution of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) microbes to immune homeostasis and colitis, we colonized unchallenged and colitis-susceptible germ-free mice with over twenty human intestinal microbiotas from healthy and IBD donors. Compared to healthy microbiotas, IBD microbiotas led to expanded RORγt + Th17 cells and reduced RORγt + Treg in the gut of unchallenged gnotobiotic mice and increased disease severity in colitis-susceptible mice. The proportions of RORγt + Th17 and RORγt + Treg induced by each microbiota were highly predictive of the human disease status and strongly correlated with disease severity in colitis-susceptible mice colonized with the same human microbiotas. The transmittable functional potential of IBD microbes suggests a mechanism for a microbial contribution to IBD pathogenesis and a potential route for its treatment and prevention.

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.
