The 1F11/TSLPR monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Receptor (TSLPR). TSLPR is a member of the
hematopoietin receptor superfamily and is also known as Cytokine Receptor-like Factor 2 (CRL2, CRLF2Y, CRLF2). The functional TSLPR
complex consists of two subunits, TSLPR and the alpha subunit of the Interleukin-7 Receptor (IL-7Rα). Analysis of the TSLPR reveals
sequence similarity with the common cytokine receptor gamma chain (γc; CD132). Functional TSLPRs are expressed by epithelial cells and a
variety of hematopoietic cell types, including thymocytes, T cells, B cells, natural killer T cells, monocytes, macrophages, basophils, and
dendritic cells (DC). Recent studies indicate that TSLP can activate multiple STAT (Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription)
signaling proteins. TSLP enhances the maturation and viability of DC. It strongly induces DC expression of the CD40 and CD80
costimulatory molecules and chemokines, e.g., TARC (Thymus and activation-regulated chemokine; CCL17) that can attract Th2 effector
cells. TSLP supports B cell development. TSLP costimulates the proliferation of naïve T cells in the presence of mature DC. TSLP is also able
to increase the sensitivity of T cell receptor-activated CD4+ T cells to low doses of IL-2. In the presence of TSLP, the acute myeloid
leukemia-derived cell line, MUTZ-3, shows induced growth and reduced apoptosis. CRLF2 deregulated gene expression is thought to be
involved in lymphoid transformation in B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The 1F11/TSLPR antibody is reportedly a neutralizing
antibody
