mRNA expression analysis

Strain specific analysis of TSLP and TSLPR gene expression in wild type C57BL/6 mice and homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice by RT-PCR. Mouse mRNA was prepared from ear grinding supernatant of wild type C57BL/6 mice (+/+;+/+) and homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice (H/H;H/H) stimulated with calcipotriol (MC903). Mouse Tslp mRNA was only detectable in wild type C57BL/6 mice (+/+;+/+). Human TSLP mRNA was only detectable in homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice but not in wild type mice. Mouse mRNA was prepared from splenocytes of wild type C57BL/6 mice and homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice. Mouse Tslpr mRNA was only detectable in wild type C57BL/6 mice.

Functional analysis

Data from Huabo Biopharm Co. Ltd.

Mouse TARC was induced with human TSLP and mouse TSLP in homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice analyzed by ELISA. Dendritic cells were respectively induced with FLT3L from bone marrow of homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice (H/H) and wild-type C57BL/6 mice (+/+), and stimulated with human TSLP or mouse TSLP in vitro. Concentration of mouse TARC secreted from DCs was assayed by ELISA. Mouse TARC was successfully induced with human TSLP, but not mouse TSLP in homozygous B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice. Meanwhile mouse TARC was successfully induced with mouse TSLP, but not human TSLP in wild-type C57BL/6 mice. Results indicated that TSLP and TSLPR are not cross-reactive between mouse and human. Introduction of human TSLP and TSLPR genes in place of its mouse counterpart does not change the stimulation effect of TSLP on dendritic cells.

Mouse asthma model was induced in B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice and treated with anti-human TSLP antibody (tezepelumab, synthesized in house). BALF was collected at the end of the experiment to detect infiltrated inflammatory cells in lung tissue. The results showed that CD45+ cells, eosinophils and neutrophils in the modeling group treated with isotype antibody (G2) was significantly higher than that in the non-modeling group (G1), while these cells in the groups (G3, G4) treated with anti-human TSLP antibody decreased significantly when compared with the G2 group. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.

H&E staining of asthma-like model in B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice

Lung tissues were collected at the study endpoint and analyzed with H&E staining. The results showed that when compared to the non-modeling group (G1), there was a significant increase in inflammatory cell infiltration and mucus secretion in the lung tissue of the modeling mice that were treated with isotype antibody (G2). But when compared with the isotype antibody treated group (G2), there is a significant reduction in inflammatory cell infiltration and mucus secretion in the lung tissue of the groups treated with tezepelumab (in house) (G3,G4). The results indicate that B-hTSLP/hTSLPR mice can successfully establish a mouse asthma-like model and provide a powerful preclinical model for in vivo evaluation of anti-human TSLP antibodies. Bold arrow: mucus; Narrow arrow: inflammatory cells; Triangle: eosinophils. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.
