Recombinant human TSLP protein - Bioactive cytokine

Recombinant cytokine, source: CHO cells

ABOUT

Human TSLP protein - Mammalian cell-expressed, His-tag, carrier-free

Recombinant human TSLP is a high-quality and biologically active cytokine, validated using proprietary TSLP reporter cells. This IL-7-like cytokine and member of the IL-2/γc superfamily is produced in CHO cells to ensure protein glycosylation and bona fide 3D structure.

Recombinant human TSLP can be used together with HEK-Blue™ TSLP cells for the screening of inhibitory molecules, such as Tezepelumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting TSLP (see figures).

 

Key features

  • Each lot is validated using HEK-Blue™ TSLP cells
  • Endotoxin ≤ 0.1 EU/µg
  • 0.2 µm sterile-filtered

Applications

  • Standard for TSLP detection and quantification assays
  • Screening and release assays for antibodies blocking TSLP signaling
  • Screening and release assays for engineered TSLP

 

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a critical mediator of type 2 (T2) immune responses, acting at the early stages of inflammation. Abnormal TSLP expression is linked to immune-mediated inflammation diseases, notably asthma and allergic airway inflammation.

Details

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an interleukin-7 (IL-7)-like cytokine with multiple functions, including cell proliferation and survival. TSLP binds a heterodimeric transmembrane receptor comprising the shared IL-7 receptor alpha-chain (IL-7Rα, CD127) and the TLSP receptor chain (TSLPR, CRLF2), a γc-like subunit. It signals through tyrosine kinases of the Janus family (JAK1 and JAK2) and signal transducer and transcription activators (STATs), notably STAT5 [1]. TSLP is best known as a critical mediator of type 2 immune responses and a promoter of Th2 cell-mediated diseases (e.g. asthma) [1,2].
