Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Over-Expressed in Human Atherosclerosis: Potential Role in Th17 Differentiation

Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Over-Expressed in Human Atherosclerosis: Potential Role in Th17 Differentiation

Background: Adaptive immunity plays a critical role in atherosclerosis and T helper 17 (Th17) cells, a new T-cell lineage, are recently reported to be involved in atherosclerosis. However, the mechanism underlying Th17 inflammation in atherosclerosis remains largely unknown. Thymic stromal lymphopoi...
