Project description:NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) represents a particularly severe endotype of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), which affects around 10-16% of CRSwNP patients. N-ERD is characterized by severe and refractory nasal polyposis, bronchial asthma and intolerance to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including aspirin. Today, the pathogenesis of N-ERD remains incompletely understood and curative treatments are lacking. Using a global transcriptomic approach, we identified local changes between the mucosa of N-ERD nasal polyps and healthy control inferior turbinates. Nasal brushing samples were collected from inferior turbinates of healthy controls and nasal polyps of N-ERD patients under anterior rhinoscopy and stored at -80°C in RNAprotect until RNA isolation and RNAseq.

Project description:Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) in western countries is characterized by eosinophilia, IgE production and Th2 cytokine expression. Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) from polyps produce IL-5 and IL-13 in response to IL-25 and IL-33 although the relevance of this axis to local mucosal T cell responses is unknown. Objective: To investigate the role of the IL-25/IL-33 axis in local mucosal T cell responses in CRSwNP. Methods: Polyp tissue and blood were obtained from patients undergoing nasal polypectomy. Control nasal biopsies and blood were obtained from healthy volunteers. Tissue was cultured in a short-term explant model. T cell surface phenotype/intracellular cytokines were assessed by flow cytometry. TCR Vβ analysis was performed with the immunoSEQ assay. Microarrays were performed for gene expression analysis. Results: Using nasal polyp tissue, numerous IL-25 receptor (IL-17RB) positive polarized Th2 cells were identified which were absent in the healthy nasal mucosa and periphery. IL-17RB+CD4+ polyp Th2 cells co-expressed ST2 (IL-33 receptor) and responded to IL-25 and IL-33 with enhanced IL-5 and IL-13 production. Within IL-17RB+CD4+ T cells several identical TCR Vβ CDR3 sequences were identified in different subjects suggesting clonal expansion driven by a common antigen. Abundant IL-17 producing T cells were observed in healthy nasal mucosal and polyp populations with Th17-related genes the most overexpressed compared to peripheral blood T cells. Conclusion: IL-25 and IL-33 may interact locally with IL-17RB+ST2+ polyp T cells to augment Th2 responses in CRSwNP. A local Th17 response may be the default signature in healthy nasal mucosal immune homeostasis. Three biological replicates. T-helper cells were isolated nasal polyps by explant culture from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Cells were then sorted based upon expression of IL17RB by flow cytometric sorting. Resting and activated IL-17RB+ve cells were compared with resting and activated IL-17RB-ve cells.

Project description:Chronic rhinosinusitis is classified into eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) and non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (NECRS). ECRS is a refractory allergic disease involving a variety of immune and epithelial cells. S100A8 is a damage-associated molecular pattern that is closely related to allergic inflammation. However, the pathological implications of S100A8 in ECRS have not been clarified. We evaluated the role of S100A8 in the pathogenesis of ECRS. Gene expression profiles of nasal polyps obtained from patients with ECRS or NECRS were evaluated using RNA sequencing. S100A8 was identified as a significantly upregulated gene in nasal polyps associated with ECRS. Consistently, immunohistochemistry revealed that S100A8 stained intensely in nasal polyps from patients with ECRS. Human nasal epithelial cells expressed the receptor for advanced glycation end products and Toll-like receptor 4. Recombinant S100A8 protein induced interleukin-1β secretion in human nasal epithelial cells. Our data demonstrate that S100A8 induces production of interleukin-1β in the nasal epithelium, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of ECRS.

Project description:Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by persistent symptoms associated to the development of nasal polyps. To this day, the molecular mechanisms involved are still not well defined. However, it has been suggested that a sustained inflammation as allergy is involved in its onset. In this pilot study, we aimed to look into the effect of the allergic status of the patient and in their underlying mechanisms. To achieve this, we recruited 22 patients with CRSwNP and classified them in non-allergic and allergic using ImmunoCAP ISAC molecular diagnosis. Plasma samples were analyzed using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Subsequently, the identified changed metabolites from plasma that were commercially available were then analyzed by targeted analysis in some nasal polyps. Additionally, nasal polyp and mucosa tissue samples were examined for eosinophils and neutrophils. We found that 9 out of the 22 patients were sensitized to some aeroallergens (named as allergic). The other 13 patients had no sensitizations (non-allergic). Regarding metabolomics, we found that bilirubin, cortisol, lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) 16:0, 18:0 and 20:4 and lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) 20:4, metabolites that are usually related to a sustained allergic inflammation, were unexpectedly increased in the plasma of non-allergic patients with CRSwNP compared to allergic patients with CRSwNP. LPC 16:0, LPC 18:0 and LPI 20:4 metabolites followed the same trend in the nasal polyp as they did in plasma. Comparison of nasal polyps with nasal mucosa tissue showed a significant increase in eosinophils (p < 0.001) and neutrophils (p < 0.01) in allergic patients with CRSwNP. There were also more eosinophils in the polyps of non-allergic patients with CRSwNP than in their nasal mucosa (p <0.01). The polyps from non-allergic patients with CRSwNP had less eosinophils than the polyps of allergic patients with CRSwNP (p < 0.05). Our data suggests that there is a systemic inflammatory response associated to CRSwNP in the absence of allergy, which could be accountable for the nasal polyp development. Allergic patients with CRSwNP presented a higher number of eosinophils located in nasal polyps suggesting that eosinophilia might be connected to the development of nasal polyps in these patients.

Project description:Asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (aCRSwNP) is a common disruptive eosinophilic disease. Therefore, we sought to identify gene expression changes in nasosinus inflamed mucosa and adjacent polyp tissue from subjects with aCRSwNP. Twelve asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis (aCRS) subjects (11 with nasal polyps; aCRSwNP) provided inflamed nasosinus mucosa (11 samples) and adjacent polyp (10 samples) or a small mixed mucosa and polyp specimen (1 sample) (thus, 22 samples overall). Inflamed mucosa or polyp was from the middle meatus or anterior ethmoid cavity. As control samples, nasosinus tissue was collected from the inferior turbinate or uncinate process from normal or rhinitis subjects without nasal polyps (n=17); 4 had physician-diagnosed allergic rhinitis (AR), 2 had suspected AR, 1 had suspected vasomotor rhinitis, and 10 had no signs of nasosinus disease, allergy, or atopy. All 4 AR subjects chose to donate tissue outside of their known allergy season(s).

Project description:Objective: To establish the transcriptome of the nasal polyp airway epithelial cells derived from N-ERD patients to uncover the gene expression patterns during this disease. Methods: Nasal airway epithelial cells were isolated from 12 N-ERD polyps and 9 N-ERD non polyp nasal mucosa as controls from the same subjects. RNA was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 2000. Potential gene candidate DMRT3 was selected from the differentially expressed genes for validation. Results: Comparative transcriptome profiling of nasal epithelial cells was achieved in N-ERD. 18 genes had twofold mean regulation expression differences or greater. 5 genes were upregulated including DMRT3 and 12 genes were down-regulated. Differentially regulated genes included inflammation, defense and immunity. Significantly enriched pathways were metabolic process and embryonic development. ELISA results of DMRT3 in N-ERD patients was significantly upregulated when compared to controls (p= 0.03). IHC of N-ERD nasal polyps localised DMRT3 and was predominantly released in the airway epithelia. These results corroborate with our findings. Conclusion: Findings suggest that DMRT3 could be potentially involved in nasal polyps development in N-ERD patients. Known functions of DMRT3 include nucleic acid binding and highly expressed during embryonic development. Several genes are downregulated, hinting dedifferentiation phenomenon in N-ERD polyps. However, further studies are required to confirm the exact mechanism of polyps formation in N-ERD patients.
