Anti-TSLP antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein thymic stromal lymphopoietin. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 159 amino acid residues and a mass of 18.1 kDa. It has been described to be a secreted protein. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. TSLP is a reported cytokine that induces the release of T-cell-attracting chemokines from monocytes and, in particular, enhances the maturation of CD11c(+) dendritic cells. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. TSLP gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine and chimpanzee species. Over 130 citations in the literature describe the use of TSLP antibodies in research. ELISA is a widely used application for these antibodies. Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
