Thymic stromal lymphopoietin-mediated extramedullary hematopoiesis promotes allergic inflammation (INC5P.328)
The Journal of Immunology(2014)
摘要
Abstract Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) refers to the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into effector cells that occurs in compartments outside of the bone marrow. Previous studies linked pattern recognition receptor (PRR)-expressing HSCs, EMH and immune responses to microbial stimuli. However, whether EMH operates in broader immune contexts remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate a previously unrecognized role for thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in promoting the population expansion of progenitor cells in the periphery and identify that TSLP-elicited progenitors differentiated into effector cells including macrophages and granulocytes; and that these cells selectively contributed to type 2 cytokine responses. The frequency of circulating progenitor cells was also increased in allergic patients with a gain-of-function polymorphism in TSLP, suggesting the TSLP-EMH pathway may operate in human disease. These data demonstrate that TSLP-induced EMH contributes to the development of Th2 cytokine-mediated inflammation and indicate that EMH is a conserved mechanism of innate immunity.
