Background: Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an immunoregulatory, Th2-polarizing cytokine produced by epithelial cells. We hypothesized that TSLP affects immune reconstitution after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) leading to increased alloreactivity. Methods: We measured plasma TSLP by ELISA in 38 patients and assessed the immune reconstitution by flow cytometry. Results: TSLP levels rose after initiation of the conditioning to peak at day +21 after HSCT (p =.03), where TSLP levels correlated with counts of neutrophils (rho = 0.36, p =.04), monocytes (rho = 0.58, p =.006), and lymphocytes (rho = 0.59, p =.02). Overall absolute TSLP levels were not associated with acute or chronic graft-vs-host disease (a/cGvHD). However, patients mounting a sustained increase in TSLP levels at day +90 had a higher risk of cGvHD compared to patients who had returned to pre-conditioning levels at that stage (cumulative incidence: 77% vs. 38%, p =.01). Conclusion: In conclusion, this study suggests a role of TSLP in immune reconstitution and alloreactivity post-HSCT. lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an immunoregulatory, Th2-polarizing cytokine produced by epithelial cells.
