Circulating effector γδ T cell populations are associated with acute coronavirus disease 19 in unvaccinated individuals
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection causes severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) in a small proportion of infected individuals. The immune system plays an important role in the defense against SARS‐CoV‐2, but our understanding of the cellular immune parameters that contribute to severe COVID‐19 disease is incomplete. Here, we show that populations of effector γδ T cells are associated with COVID‐19 in unvaccinated patients with acute disease. We found that circulating CD27 neg CD45RA + CX3CR1 + Vδ1 effector cells expressing Granzymes (Gzms) were enriched in COVID‐19 patients with acute disease. Moreover, higher frequencies of GzmB + Vδ2 + T cells were observed in acute COVID‐19 patients. SARS‐CoV‐2 infection did not alter the γδ T cell receptor repertoire of either Vδ1 + or Vδ2 + subsets. Our work demonstrates an association between effector populations of γδ T cells and acute COVID‐19 in unvaccinated individuals.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
