The last step to achieve barrier damage control

Frontiers in Immunology
Heterogeneity characterises inflammatory diseases and different phenotypes and endotypes have been identified. Both innate and adaptive immunity contribute to the immunopathological mechanism of these diseases and barrier damage plays a prominent role ...

Interleukin-7 Receptor Alpha in Innate Lymphoid Cells: More Than a Marker

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a group of immune cells that are important for defense against pathogens, tissue repair, and lymphoid organogenesis.

Cellular Mechanism and Key Insights in Allergen Immunotherapy for Allergic Rhinitis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) arises from immune responses mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) to inhaled allergens, representing one of the most prevalent chronic conditions worldwide. Although AR may not be a serious ailment, it holds clinical relevance as it underpins numerous complications, serves as a major risk factor for suboptimal asthma ...

Sequence of Immunological Events During IgE‐Mediated Allergic Reactions to Food

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food allergies (FA) represent a significant global health burden. Upon allergen re‐exposure, allergic patients exhibit a sequence of symptoms that vary in terms of affected organ systems, severity, time of onset and allergen reactivity thresholds.

Role of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in asthma [PDF]

, 2021
Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a pleiotropic cytokine originally isolated from a murine thymic stromal cell line and characterized as a lymphocyte growth factor. TSLP is predominantly expressed by lung and gut epithelial cells, keratinocytes, and by dendritic cells (DCs). TSLP can be produced also by airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells, mast cells,

Cloning of human thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and signaling mechanisms leading to proliferation [PDF]

Leukemia, 2001
Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a novel cytokine that was found to promote the development of murine B cells in vitro. Here we describe the cloning and characterization of the human homologue of murine TSLP. This protein, which is expressed in a number of tissues including heart, liver and prostate, prevented apoptosis and stimulated growth of ...

Targeting Immunologic Pathways in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Translating Emerging Evidence Into Clinical Practice

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening systemic, inflammatory disease with multi‐organ manifestations, variable presentation and complex pathology. Multiple interconnected immunological pathways are implicated in EGPA pathology, including a type‐2 immune response driving predominantly ...

The multiple facets of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) during allergic inflammation and beyond [PDF]

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2012
ABSTRACTOriginally shown to promote the growth and activation of B cells, TSLP is now known to have wide-ranging impacts on hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cell lineages, including DCs, basophils, eosinophils, mast cells, CD4+, CD8+, and NK T cells, B cells, and epithelial cells.

TSLP/dendritic cell axis promotes CD4+ T cell tolerance to the gut microbiome

JCI Insight, 2023
Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) overexpression is widely associated with atopy. However, TSLP is expressed in normal barrier organs, suggesting a homeostatic function.

Successful Application of the Mast Cell Activation Test in Immediate Hypersensitivity to Amoxicillin

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study included 28 amoxicillin‐allergic patients and 11 healthy exposed controls. Mast cells were differentiated from CD34+ progenitors over 8 weeks using cytokine cocktails. The mast cell activation test involved sensitization with patient or control sera and stimulation with free amoxicillin or G4/G5‐AXO dendrimers with successfully activated ...
