RT-PCR assays using the TSLP primer sets designed by Fornasa et al. and Biancheri et al. [29,30] showed the sfTSLP transcript displayed an expression pattern similar to that with our transcript (TSLPv2) in the corresponding cell lines (compared Figure 1b,d), and was also found to be weakly expressed in two FTSEC cell lines (FTSEC190 and FTSEC194) and three ovarian cancer cell lines (SKOV3, CaOV4, OVSAHO). This evidence concerns the gene TSLP and ovarian carcinoma.
