Elevated Plasma Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin After Acute Myocardial Infarction
BackgroundThymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), a distant paralog of the cytokine IL-7, has been shown to be associated with atherosclerosis. However, the effect of plasma TSLP level after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains largely unclear.

Allergen recognition by innate immune cells: critical role of dendritic and epithelial cells [PDF]
Allergy is an exacerbated response of the immune system against non-self-proteins called allergens and is typically characterized by biased type-2 T helper cell and deleterious IgE mediated immune responses.

Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Induction Suppresses Lung Cancer Development
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States and across the world. Immunotherapies, which activate tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic T lymphocytes, have demonstrated efficacy for the treatment of advanced-stage lung cancer. However, the potential for harnessing the immune system against the early stages of lung carcinogenesis to ...

Beneficial autoimmunity at body surfaces – immune surveillance and rapid type 2 immunity regulate tissue homeostasis and cancer [PDF]
Epithelial cells line body surface tissues and provide a physicochemical barrier to the external environment. Frequent microbial and non-microbial challenges such as those imposed by mechanical disruption, injury or exposure to noxious environmental ...

Virtual screening for inhibitors of the human TSLP:TSLPR interaction [PDF]
The pro-inflammatory cytokine thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of various allergy disorders that are mediated by type 2 helper T cell (Th2) responses, such as asthma and atopic dermatitis.

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin: a new cytokine in asthma [PDF]
Airway epithelial cells provide mechanical and immune protection against pathogens and allergens. Following activation, these cells produce a wide range of cytokines including thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). Recently it was established that a high level of TSLP is associated with asthma in mice and in humans.

Abnormal thymic stromal lymphopoietin expression in the duodenal mucosa of patients with coeliac disease [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The short isoform of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), a cytokine constitutively expressed by epithelial cells, is crucial in preserving immune tolerance in the gut.

TSLP directly impairs pulmonary Treg function: association with aberrant tolerogenic immunity in asthmatic airway [PDF]
Background Even though thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) has been implicated in the development of allergic inflammation, its influence on immune tolerance mediated by regulatory T cells (Treg) have not been explored.
