Effect of In-vivo heat challenge on physiological parameters and function of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in immune phenotyped dairy cattle
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The frequency of heat waves and hot days are increasing due to climate change, which leads to an increase in the occurrence of heat stress in dairy cattle. Previous studies have shown that dairy cattle identified as high immune responders have a reduced incidence of disease and improved vaccine response compared to average and low responders. Additionally, it has been observed that when cells from immune phenotyped cattle are exposed to in-vitro heat challenge, high immune responders exhibit increased heat tolerance compared to average and low immune responders. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate physiological parameters and the function of blood mononuclear cells of immune phenotyped dairy cattle exposed to in-vivo heat challenge. A total of 24 immune phenotyped lactating dairy cattle (8 high, 8 average and 8 low) were housed in the tie-stall area of the barn and exposed to an in-vivo heat challenge for 4 h on 2 subsequent days, where the temperature was set at 29 ℃. Blood samples were taken both pre- and post-challenge each day and manual respiration rates and rectal temperatures were recorded pre challenge and every 30 min during the challenge. Temperature and humidity measurements were taken in correspondence with all respiration rate and rectal temperature measurements to calculate the temperature humidity index pre heat challenge and at 30-minute intervals during the heat challenge. Blood mononuclear cells were isolated from blood collected pre and post challenge and the concentration of heat shock protein 70 and cell proliferation were assessed. Results showed that average and low responders had significantly greater respiration rates compared to high responders at a temperature humidity index of 77 and above. No significant difference was observed between phenotypes for rectal temperature. High responders had a higher heat shock protein 70 concentration and greater cell proliferation after in-vivo heat challenges compared to average and low responders. These results paralleled those found during in-vitro heat challenge adding further credence to the concept that high responders may be more resilient to heat stress compared average and low responders.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
