TSLPR deficiency attenuates AHR independently of eosinophilia and mucus secretion in a chronic HDM mouse model of allergic asthma.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAsthma is marked by chronic airway inflammation, immune dysregulation, and airway remodeling. While TSLP is known to influence allergic diseases like asthma, the role of TSLPR in airway remodeling is not well-defined.
methodsUsing TSLPR-deficient (TSLPR-/-) mice in a chronic HDM asthma model, we assessed lung function, inflammatory cell infiltration, cytokine levels, and antibody production in serum and lung tissues. Airway remodeling was evaluated by examining mucus production, goblet cell metaplasia, and collagen deposition.
resultsTSLPR-/- mice showed lower airway resistance, tissue resistance, and tissue elastance compared to wild-type mice after chronic HDM exposure. TSLPR-/- mice also had reduced HDM-specific IgE levels and decreased IL-4, IL-13, and IFN-γ in BALF. However, airway and lung inflammation, including inflammatory cell counts and eosinophil infiltration, were similar between TSLPR-/- and WT mice. Collagen deposition, mucus production, and goblet cell changes were also comparable.
conclusionTSLPR deficiency reduced airway hyperresponsiveness but did not significantly impact lung eosinophil and neutrophil counts or mucus and collagen production in a chronic HDM asthma model, highlighting the complex role of TSLP and TSLPR in severe asthma.
