Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (eCRSwNP) is characterized by Th2-skewed inflammation with eosinophilic infiltration. Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) promotes the development of allergic inflammation. Although increased TSLP is found in eCRSwNP, little is known about whether TSLP regulates eotaxin-1 production, a potent eosinophil chemoattractant that recruits and activates eosinophils.
