Testing organ-specific responses to therapies in tissues differentiated from Cystic Fibrosis patient derived iPSCs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a life-shortening disease that is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, a gene that is expressed in multiple organs. There are several primary tissue models of CF disease, including nasal epithelial cultures and rectal organoids, that are effective in reporting the potential efficacy of mutation-targeted therapies called CFTR modulators. However, there is the well-documented variation in tissue dependent, therapeutic response amongst CF patients, even those with the same CF-causing mutation. Hence, there is an interest in developing strategies for comparing therapeutic efficacy in different organs relative to isogenic controls. In this study, we evaluated the CFTR chloride channel response to the highly effective CFTR modulator: Trikafta, in CF patient specific, iPSC-derived colonic and airway cultures relative to mutation-corrected (non-CF) tissues from that same individual. We measured pharmacological rescue in both tissues. This proof-of-concept study provides a roadmap for future comparisons of patient-specific CF therapeutic responses in both pulmonary and extra-pulmonary systems.

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.
