Thymic stromal lymphopoietin He R; Geha RSAnn N Y Acad Sci 2010[Jan]; 1183 (ä): 13-24Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an epithelial cell-derived cytokine expressed in skin, gut, lungs, and thymus. TSLP signals via a TSLP receptor (TSLPR), a heterodimer of the IL-7 receptor alpha chain and the TSLPR chain. The TSLPR chain is closely related to the common receptor gamma chain that is expressed on a wide range of cell types in the adaptive and innate immune system. TSLP exerts a profound influence on the polarization of dendritic cells to drive T helper (Th) 2 cytokine production. TSLP also directly promotes T-cell proliferation in response to T-cell receptor activation and Th2 cytokine production and supports B-cell expansion and differentiation. TSLP further amplifies Th2 cytokine production by mast cells and natural killer T cells. These properties confer on TSLP a critical role in driving Th2-mediated inflammation. This role is supported by the finding that TSLP expression is upregulated in keratinocytes of atopic dermatitis skin lesions and in bronchial epithelial cells in asthma.|Animals[MESH]|Asthma/genetics/immunology[MESH]|Autoimmune Diseases/genetics/immunology[MESH]|B-Lymphocytes/immunology/metabolism/physiology[MESH]|Cell Differentiation/genetics[MESH]|Cytokines/genetics/metabolism/*physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Inflammation/genetics/immunology[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Receptors, Cytokine/metabolism/physiology[MESH]|T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer/immunology/metabolism/physiology[MESH]|Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin[MESH] |
