Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure the inflammatory cytokines of middle ear effusion (MEE) in otitis media (OM) associated with asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) with or without nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) sensitivity to strengthen our assumption that OM is part of the same inflammatory entity. The potential individual differences between MEE inflammatory cytokines could be used in clinical practice for more individual characterization of the inflammation. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study. SETTING Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Convenience sample of 24 case patients with otitis media with effusion (OME) or chronic otitis media (COM), asthma, and CRSwNP, 14 of whom had NSAID intolerance, and 8 controls with OME but no history of asthma, CRSwNP, or NSAID intolerance. INTERVENTION Diagnostic. MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURE Inflammatory cytokines including interleukins (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) in middle ear effusion. RESULTS The MEE mass fractions of IL-5 (p = 0.003) and IFN-γ (p = 0.048) were higher among our case patients with OME/COM than among the controls. For IL-4 and IL-13, the mass fractions were also higher among the case patients than the controls, but this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.199 and p = 0.617, respectively). We found no difference between the IL-6 mass fractions of the groups. We found notable heterogeneity in individual patients' cytokine levels. CONCLUSIONS According to our findings, OM, when present, should be considered part of the respiratory inflammatory process associated with asthma and CRSwNP. The individual differences in MEE cytokine levels could be useful as biomarkers.

IL-4Rα signaling promotes barrier-altering oncostatin M and IL-6 production in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2024:S0091-6749(24)00453-6. [PMID: 38704098 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaci.2024.04.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is a severe disease involving dysregulated type 2 inflammation. However, the role other inflammatory pathways play in AERD is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE We sought to broadly define the inflammatory milieu of the upper respiratory tract in AERD and to determine the effects of IL-4Rα inhibition on mediators of nasal inflammation. METHODS Twenty-two AERD patients treated with dupilumab for 3 months were followed over 3 visits and compared to 10 healthy controls. Nasal fluid was assessed for 45 cytokines and chemokines using Olink Target 48. Blood neutrophils and cultured human mast cells, monocytes/macrophages, and nasal fibroblasts were assessed for response to IL-4/13 stimulation in vitro. RESULTS Of the nasal fluid cytokines measured, nearly one third were higher in AERD patients compared to healthy controls, including IL-6 and the IL-6 family-related cytokine oncostatin M (OSM), both of which correlated with nasal albumin levels, a marker of epithelial barrier dysregulation. Dupilumab significantly decreased many nasal mediators, including OSM and IL-6. IL-4 stimulation induced OSM production from mast cells and macrophages but not from neutrophils, and OSM and IL-13 stimulation induced IL-6 production from nasal fibroblasts. CONCLUSION In addition to type 2 inflammation, innate and IL-6-related cytokines are also elevated in the respiratory tract in AERD. Both OSM and IL-6 are locally produced in nasal polyps and likely promote pathology by negatively affecting epithelial barrier function. IL-4Rα blockade, although seemingly directed at type 2 inflammation, also decreases mediators of innate inflammation and epithelial dysregulation, which may contribute to dupilumab's therapeutic efficacy in AERD.

Abstract
Allergy and asthma prevalence vary across different subsets of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. In this article, the authors investigate the management of allergy and asthma within populations of patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, allergic fungal rhinosinusitis, and central compartment atopic disease. Topical steroids, nasal rinses, and endoscopic sinus surgery are frequently employed in the management of nasal polyposis. Further, other causes of upper and lower airway inflammation like allergy and asthma should be considered in the overall treatment plan in order to optimize outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim was to discuss the role of non-type 2 inflammation in patients diagnosed with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and comorbid lower airway disease. DATA SOURCES Medline, Embase, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, TRIP Database, ProQuest, Clinicaltrials.gov, Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, government and health organizations, and graduate-level theses. REVIEW METHODS This scoping review followed PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Search strategy was peer-reviewed by medical librarians. Studies were included if they utilized airway sampling, non-type 2 cytokines, and patients with CRS and lower airway disease. RESULTS Twenty-seven from 7060 articles were included. In patients with CRS and comorbid asthma, aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)/bronchiectasis, 60% (n = 12), 33% (n = 2), and 100% (n = 1), respectively, demonstrated mixed or non-type 2 endotypes. Comorbid CRS and asthma produced type 1 (n = 1.5), type 2 (n = 8), type 3 (n = 1), mixed type 1/2 (n = 1), and mixed type 1/2/3 (n = 8.5) endotype shifts. AERD demonstrated type 2 (n = 4), mixed type 2/3 (n = 1), and mixed type 1/2/3 (n = 1) endotype shifts. CRS with COPD or bronchiectasis demonstrated a mixed 1/2 (n = 1) endotype shift. CONCLUSION Type 2 disease has been extensively reviewed due to advent biologics targeting type 2 inflammation, but outcomes may be suboptimal due to the presence of non-type 2 inflammation. A proportion of patients with CRS and comorbid lower airway disease demonstrated mixed and non-type 2 endotype shifts. This emphasizes that patients with unified airway disease may have forms of inflammation beyond classical type 2 disease which could inform biologic development. Laryngoscope, 134:1005-1013, 2024.

Abstract
Immediate drug hypersensitivity reactions (IDHRs) are a burden for patients and the health systems. This problem increases when taking into account that only a small proportion of patients initially labelled as allergic are finally confirmed after an allergological workup. The diverse nature of drugs involved will imply different interactions with the immunological system. Therefore, IDHRs can be produced by a wide array of mechanisms mediated by the drug interaction with specific antibodies or directly on effector target cells. These heterogeneous mechanisms imply an enhanced complexity for an accurate diagnosis and the identification of the phenotype and endotype at early stages of the reaction is of vital importance. Currently, several endophenotypic categories (type I IgE/non-IgE, cytokine release, Mast-related G-protein coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) or Cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibition and their associated biomarkers have been proposed. A precise knowledge of endotypes will permit to discriminate patients within the same phenotype, which is crucial in order to personalise diagnosis, future treatment and prevention to improve the patient's quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare connective tissue disorder of unknown etiology characterized by organ fibrosis and microcirculation dysfunction. Emerging evidence suggests that SSc is related to increased oxidative stress, which contributes to further tissue and vascular damage. METHODS Oxidative stress response in the peripheral blood was assessed in patients with SSc (n = 55) and well-matched controls (n = 44) using real-time monitoring of protein hydroperoxide (HP) formation by the coumarin boronic acid (CBA) assay. We also analyzed the relationship between HP generation and SSc clinics, systemic inflammation, and cellular fibronectin, an emerging biomarker of endothelial damage. RESULTS SSc was characterized by a significantly faster (2-fold) fluorescent product generation in the CBA assay and higher cumulative HP formation (3-fold) compared to controls (p<0.001, both). The dynamics of HP generation were not associated with the form of the disease (diffuse vs. limited SSc), current immunosuppressive therapy use, presence of abnormal nailfold capillaries, and autoantibody profile. Still, it was enhanced in patients with more severe illness and certain clinical manifestations (i.e., pulmonary hypertension, digital ulcers, and cyclophosphamide treatment) and in smokers (current or past). Higher serum CRP, blood eosinophil count, and cellular fibronectin with lower hemoglobin levels were independent determinants of increased HP formation. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate a pro-oxidant imbalance in SSc, likely related to systemic inflammation and endothelial injury. However, extensive prospective studies are needed to verify whether it is also associated with clinical disease progression.

Abstract
Purpose To describe the lung function and clinical control of asthma in patients with N-ERD during three years of medical follow-up using GINA guidelines. Methods We evaluated 75 N-ERD and 68 asthma patients (AG). Clinical control, lung function, and asthma treatment were evaluated according to GINA-2014. We compared all variables at baseline and one, two, and three years after treatment. Results At baseline, the N-ERD group had better basal lung function (LF) than the AG group (p<0.01), and the AG group used higher doses of inhaled corticosteroids than the N-ERD group (52.4% vs 30.5%, p=0.01) and short-term oral corticosteroid (OCS) use (52.4% vs 30.5%, p<0.01). Instead, N-ERD patients needed more use of leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRA) (29.3% vs 5.9%, p<0.01). This group had better clinical control than the AG group (62.1% vs 34.1%, p<0.01). During the medical follow-up, the LF of the N-ERD group remained at normal values; however, these parameters improved in AG from one year (p<0.01). Likewise, there was a diminished use of high doses of ICS (52.4% vs 33%, p<0.05) and short-term OCS (67.6% vs 20.6%, p<0.01) in asthma patients. However, N-ERD patients still needed more use of LTRAs (p<0.02) during the study. In this context, one-third of N-ERD patients had to use a combination of two drugs to maintain this control. From the second year on, clinical control of asthma was similar in both groups (p>0.05). Conclusion According to GINA guidelines, only one-third of patients with N-ERD can gradually achieve adequate lung function and good asthma control with a high ICS dosage. Only a very small portion of patients will require the continued use of a second medication as an LTRA to keep their asthma under control.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is a unique and often clinically severe disease affecting a subgroup of adults with asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. Works published in 2021-2022 confirmed the critical role of lipid mediator dysregulation and mast cell activation and expanded our understanding of basophils, macrophages, fibrin dysregulation, and the 15-lipoxygenase pathway in disease pathogenesis. Translational studies established inflammatory heterogeneity in the upper and lower airway at baseline and during aspirin-induced respiratory reactions. Clinical cohorts provided insights into the mechanistic actions of frequently utilized biologic therapies in AERD. These advances are already changing clinical care delivery and affecting patient outcomes. Despite this, further work is needed to improve clinical tools to reliably diagnose AERD and identify factors that could prevent development of the disease altogether. Additionally, the impact of inflammatory heterogeneity on clinical trajectories and the utility and safety of combination biologic and daily aspirin therapies remains unanswered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the 5 years that have passed since the publication of the 2018 International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Allergic Rhinitis (ICAR-Allergic Rhinitis 2018), the literature has expanded substantially. The ICAR-Allergic Rhinitis 2023 update presents 144 individual topics on allergic rhinitis (AR), expanded by over 40 topics from the 2018 document. Originally presented topics from 2018 have also been reviewed and updated. The executive summary highlights key evidence-based findings and recommendation from the full document. METHODS ICAR-Allergic Rhinitis 2023 employed established evidence-based review with recommendation (EBRR) methodology to individually evaluate each topic. Stepwise iterative peer review and consensus was performed for each topic. The final document was then collated and includes the results of this work. RESULTS ICAR-Allergic Rhinitis 2023 includes 10 major content areas and 144 individual topics related to AR. For a substantial proportion of topics included, an aggregate grade of evidence is presented, which is determined by collating the levels of evidence for each available study identified in the literature. For topics in which a diagnostic or therapeutic intervention is considered, a recommendation summary is presented, which considers the aggregate grade of evidence, benefit, harm, and cost. CONCLUSION The ICAR-Allergic Rhinitis 2023 update provides a comprehensive evaluation of AR and the currently available evidence. It is this evidence that contributes to our current knowledge base and recommendations for patient evaluation and treatment.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is characterized by persistent locoregional mucosal inflammation of the paranasal sinuses and upper airway that has substantial associated health care costs1. Personalized approaches to care that incorporate use of molecular biomarkers, phenotypes and inflammatory endotypes is a major focus of research at this time, and the concurrent rise of targeted therapeutics and biologic therapies has the potential to rapidly advance care and improve outcomes. Recent findings suggest that improved understanding of CRS phenotypic and endotypic heterogeneity, and incorporation of these characteristics into clinical care pathways, may facilitate more effective selection of surgical and/or therapeutic interventions2. Ultimately, these personalized approaches have the potential to target specific inflammatory pathways, increase efficacy, reduce costs, and limit side effects. This review summarizes recent advances in the identification and characterization of CRS phenotypes, endotypes, and biomarkers and reviews potential implications for targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) is a chronic medical condition that includes asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, and hypersensitivity to aspirin and other NSAIDs. Eosinophilic inflammation in the upper and lower airways is treated with local corticosteroids, repeated antibiotics, oral corticosteroid courses, endoscopic sinus surgery, and in some cases aspirin treatment after desensitization (ATAD). Nevertheless, the disease may be uncontrolled and it has a great impact on quality of life. A better understanding of the pathomechanisms of the disease and the development of medications that target type 2 inflammation mediators may have a crucial role in achieving better disease control in patients with N-ERD.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) is an adult-onset inflammatory condition of the upper and lower airways. It is characterized by the co-existence of asthma, nasal polyposis, and hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. Over one-fourth of patients also have symptoms of chronic middle-ear infection. The clinical course of NERD is often severe and generally requires multimodal treatment with recurrent surgical measures. Studies presenting the disease burden and subjective symptom control of NERD are limited. In this qualitative questionnaire study, we present the clinical characteristics of asthma, nasal polyposis, NSAID intolerance and possible recurrent or chronic middle-ear infection of 66 confirmed NERD patients treated at our tertiary referral center between January 2016 and May 2017. Additionally, we present the patient-reported disease control of asthma, nasal polyposis, and middle-ear symptoms on a four-category Likert scale. The proportion of NERD patients with recurrent or chronic middle-ear infection was 18%. The proportion of good or very good subjective disease control was 83% for asthma, 58% for nasal polyposis, and 33% for chronic middle-ear infection, if present. Chronic middle-ear infection is common among NERD patients and should more often be recognized as part of the entity. Together with nasal polyposis, chronic middle-ear infection seems to affect patients more than asthma. The patient's perspective of disease control should be considered when planning the interdisciplinary follow-up and treatment of NERD.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common clinical syndrome that produces significant morbidity and costs to our health system. The study of CRS has progressed from an era focused on phenotype to include endotype-based information. Phenotypic classification has identified clinical heterogeneity in CRS based on endoscopically observed features such as presence of nasal polyps, presence of comorbid or systemic diseases, and timing of disease onset. More recently, laboratory-based findings have established CRS endotype based upon specific mechanisms or molecular biomarkers. Understanding the basis of widespread heterogeneity in the manifestations of CRS is advanced by findings that the three main endotypes, Type 1, 2, and 3, orchestrate the expression of three distinct large sets of genes. The development and use of improved methods of endotyping disease in the clinic are ushering in an expansion of the use of biological therapies targeting Type 2 inflammation now and perhaps other inflammatory endotypes in the near future. The purpose of this review is to discuss the phenotypic and endotypic heterogeneity of CRS from the perspective of advancing the understanding of the pathogenesis and improvement of treatment approaches and outcomes.

Innate immune cell dysregulation drives inflammation and disease in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2021; 148:309-318.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is a complex inflammatory disorder that is not generally viewed as a disease involving the adaptive immune system but instead one largely driven by the innate immune system. This article focuses on the cellular dysregulation involving 4 central cell types: eosinophils, basophils, mast cells, and innate lymphoid type 2 cells. AERD can be envisioned as involving a self-perpetuating vicious circle in which mediators produced by a differentiated activated epithelial layer, such as IL-25, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin, engage and activate each of these innate immune cells. The activation of these innate immune cells with their production of additional cytokine/chemokine and lipid mediators leads to further recruitment and activation of these innate immune cells. More importantly, numerous mediators produced by these innate immune cells provoke the epithelium to induce further inflammation. This self-perpetuating cycle of inflammation partially explains both current interventions suggested to ameliorate AERD (eg, aspirin desensitization, leukotriene modifiers, anti-IL-5/IL-5 receptor, anti-IL-4 receptor, and anti-IgE) and invites exploration of novel targets as specific therapies for this condition (prostaglandin D2 antagonists or cytokine antagonists [IL-25, IL-33, thymic stromal lymphopoietin]). Several of these interventions currently show promise in small retrospective analyses but now require definite clinical trials.

Abstract
Periostin is known to be a useful biomarker for various diseases. In this article, we focus on allergic diseases and pulmonary fibrosis, for which we and others are now developing detection systems for periostin as a biomarker. Biomarker-based precision medicine in the management of type 2 inflammation and fibrotic diseases since heterogeneity is of utmost importance. Periostin expression is induced by type 2 cytokines (interleukin-4/-13) or transforming growth factor-β, and plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of allergic inflammation or interstitial lung disease, respectively, andits serum levels are correlated disease severity, prognosis and responsiveness to the treatment. We first summarise the importance of type 2 biomarker and then describe the pathological role of periostin in the development and progression of type 2 allergic inflammation and pulmonary fibrosis. In addition, then, we summarise the recent development of assay methods for periostin detection, and analyse the diseases in which periostin concentration is elevated in serum and local biological fluids and its usefulness as a biomarker. Furthermore, we describe recent findings of periostin as a biomarker in the use of biologics or anti-fibrotic therapy. Finally, we describe the factors that influence the change in periostin concentration under the healthy conditions.
