Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Immune-stromal crosstalk governs tissue fibrosis, which is marked by dysregulated extracellular matrix (ECM) production and aberrant vasculature. Here, we investigate how γδ T cell interactions with stromal cells shape fibrosis in the foreign body response. During the acute reaction, type-1 (γδIFNγ) and type-17 (γδ17) effector subsets accumulated at the implant. While γδIFNγ decreased as fibrosis progressed, activated γδ17 persisted as dominant interleukin-17 producers. The γδ17 increased with aging and high-fat diet, both factors associated with chronic inflammation and fibrosis. Co-culture with γδ17 stimulated fibroblast expression of collagen genes and intercellular communication inference linked γδ T cell ligands to activation of ECM remodeling and vascular development programs in fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Finally, genetic deletion of γδ T cells altered expression of ECM components and increased vessel size within the fibrotic matrix. Altogether, our findings implicate γδ T cells in regulating stromal behavior to modulate composition and vascularity of fibrotic tissues.

Not 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.
