Patrie, MS, Steven F. Ziegler, PhD, Martin D. Chapman, PhD, Judith A.

2 Fig 1 The TH2-promoting effect of TSLP is weak in atopic subjects. CD4+ T cells were cocultured with moDCs primed for 48 hours with TSLP. A, Cells were stained for intracellular cytokines (day 10) and analyzed by means of flow cytometry, gating on CD4+ T cells. Relative change for each T-cell type compared with nonstimulated cells is expressed as NI (n = 5 subjects per group). Error bars represent 95% CIs. B, Representative dot plots showing nonstimulated (NS) and TSLP-stimulated CD4+ T cells stained for IL-4 and IFN-γ. Percentages of cells in each quadrant are shown. C, Secreted cytokines in nonstimulated (NS) and TSLP-stimulated cultures (n = 5 subjects per group). Bars represent means ± SEMs. ∗Significant versus control group.

A, Summary data showing the percentage of each T-cell type induced by different stimuli (n = 5 subjects per group). Values are geometric means. Black and gray asterisks denote significant differences for IL-10+ and IL-4+ cell types, respectively, after adjusting for multiple comparisons. B, Relative change in each T-cell type for H22–Fel d 1 plus TSLP versus H22–Fel d 1 alone (left) and H22–Fel d 1 plus TSLP versus TSLP alone (right; n = 5 per group). Error bars represent 95% CIs. ∗Significant after adjusting for multiple comparisons. C, Representative dot plot from a patients with AD showing the phenotype of gated CD4+ T cells induced by different stimuli. NS, Nonstimulated.

6 Fig 5 FcR signaling components modulate H22–Fel d 1–induced TSLP receptor expression. A, Calcium mobilization in atopic moDCs primed with different stimuli. The y-axis represents the ratio of free to bound calcium. Data are representative of 4 atopic subjects. B, Effect of kinase inhibitors on H22–Fel d 1–induced TSLPr expression in atopic DCs. Cells were incubated with inhibitors for 1 hour before priming with H22–Fel d 1 and analyzing for TSLPr expression (24 hours).

7 Fig 6 Blocking TSLPr upregulation in coprimed moDCs abolishes their TH2-promoting effect. Atopic moDCs were incubated with no inhibitor (No inh.) or with LY before priming with different stimuli. Cells were then washed and cultured with CD4+ T cells for 7 days. Intracellular cytokine expression was analyzed by flow cytometry. Dot plots show the phenotype of gated CD4+ T cells.

MoDCs isolated from subjects with cat allergy with and without AD were cocultured with CD4+ T cells after priming for 48 hours with Fel d 1 (Fel), H22–Fel d 1 (H-Fel), TSLP, or H22–Fel d 1 plus TSLP.
