A PD-1-ST2 axis controls Th2 effector function in tissue via a metabolic checkpoint
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Type 2 immune responses characterise both helminth infections and atopic disease such as allergy or asthma, but a better understanding of the mechanisms that regulate these responses is key to improving therapeutic and vaccination strategies. Immuno-metabolic studies over the last two decades have suggested T cell activation broadly requires rapid increases in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation. In contrast, we show that CD4 + T helper 2 (Th2) cells activated in vivo , using models of helminth infection, do not acquire a glycolytic metabolism. Instead, we show that Th2 cells solely increase their oxidative metabolism, associated with increased fatty acid uptake. Rather than contributing directly to effector function, our data reveal that Th2 cells switch to fatty acid oxidation downstream of PD-1 signalling to promote expression of the IL-33 receptor (ST2). These data provide insight into the spatial regulation of T cell metabolism, and suggest that PD-1 blockade therapies may be effective in Th2 disorders.

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.
