TSLP is thought to act on dendritic cells (DC), but the precise DC subsets involved in the response to TSLP remain to be fully characterized. In this study we show that a subset of CD326loCD103loCD11blo dermal DC, which we termed \u201ctriple-negative (TN) DC,\u201d is highly responsive to TSLP. In DBP-FITC\u2013treated mice, TN DC upregulated expression of CD86 and rapidly migrated to the draining lymph node to become the most abundant skin-derived DC subset at 24 and 48 h after sensitization. None of these responses was observed in TSLPR-deficient mice. In contrast, TN DC numbers were not increased after treatment with the allergen house dust mite or the bacteria Escherichia coli and bacillus Calmette\u2013Gu\u00e9rin, which increased other DC subsets. In vivo, treatment with rTSLP preferentially increased the numbers of TN DC in lymph nodes. In vitro, TN DC responded to rTSLP treatment with a higher level of STAT5 phosphorylation compared with other skin-derived DC subsets. The TN DC subset shared the morphology, phenotype, and developmental requirements of conventional DC, depending on FLT3 expression for their optimal development from bone marrow precursors, and CCR7 for migration to the draining lymph node. Thus, TN DC represent a dermal DC subset that should be considered in future studies of TSLP-dependent contact sensitization and skin immune responses.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.1400536","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,7,24]],"date-time":"2014-07-24T03:54:41Z","timestamp":1406174081000},"page":"2504-2511","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":62,"title":["CD326loCD103loCD11blo Dermal Dendritic Cells Are Activated by Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin during Contact Sensitization in Mice"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"193","author":[{"given":"Sotaro","family":"Ochiai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Malaghan Institute of Medical Research , Wellington 6012 ,","place":["New Zealand"]},{"name":"University of Otago , Wellington 6021 ,","place":["New Zealand"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ben","family":"Roediger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centenary Institute , Sydney, New South Wales 2042 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arby","family":"Abtin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centenary Institute , Sydney, New South Wales 2042 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elena","family":"Shklovskaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centenary Institute , Sydney, New South Wales 2042 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barbara","family":"Fazekas de St. Groth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centenary Institute , Sydney, New South Wales 2042 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hidehiro","family":"Yamane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Immunology, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health , Bethesda, MD 20892"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wolfgang","family":"Weninger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centenary Institute , Sydney, New South Wales 2042 ,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"Sydney Medical School , Sydney, New South Wales 2006 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Graham","family":"Le Gros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Malaghan Institute of Medical Research , Wellington 6012 ,","place":["New Zealand"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Franca","family":"Ronchese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Malaghan Institute of Medical Research , Wellington 6012 ,","place":["New Zealand"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025030707305376800_r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3","DOI":"10.2332\/allergolint.11-RAI-0395","article-title":"TSLP expression: cellular sources, triggers, and regulatory mechanisms","volume":"61","author":"Takai","year":"2012","journal-title":"Allergol.
