Target Details for Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin

Target: Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP)

Alternative Name: TSLP

Background: Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a member of the B cell-stimulating factor family. Originally identified from the conditioned medium of a mouse thymic stromal cell line that promoted B-cell development, TSLP is expressed in thymus, spleen, kidney, lung, and bone marrow. Mouse TSLP cDNA encodes a 140 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a 19 aa signal sequence. TSLP activity overlaps with that of IL-7, playing a key role in the development of B cells, as well as stimulating the growth of thymocytes and T cells. TSLP stimulates monocytes to produce T cell-attracting chemokines such as TARC (CCL17) and MDC (CCL22). TSLP also activates dendritic cell-primed CD4 T cells to produce Th2 cytokines, including IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and TNFα. This hematopoietic cytokine binds to a heterodimeric receptor complex consisting of the IL-7R alpha chain (IL-7Rα) and the TSLP-specific chain (TSLPR). Binding induces activation of STAT3 and STAT5 via phosphorylation. Mouse TSLP shares approximately 43 % amino acid sequence identity with human TSLP.
