Dupilumab prevents nasal epithelial function alteration by IL-4 in vitro: Evidence for its efficacy. Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2024. [PMID: 38465788 DOI: 10.1002/alr.23343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyp (CRSwNP) is a typical type 2 inflammation involving interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13. Dupilumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting IL-4 receptor α subunit, thereby blocking signaling by both cytokines. Our hypothesis was that IL-4 and IL-13, by inducing a severe epithelial dysregulation, are involved in CRSwNP pathogenesis. This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro direct effect of IL-4, IL-13, and dupilumab on nasal epithelial functions. METHODS Nasal polyps and control mucosa from 28 patients, as well as human nasal epithelial cells (HNEC) from 35 patients with CRSwNP were used. Three major epithelial functions were investigated: the epithelial barrier function (characterized by transepithelial electrical resistance measurements and tight junction protein expression), the ciliary motion (characterized by the ciliary beating efficiency index), and wound healing (characterized by the wound repair rate) under various stimulations (IL-4, IL-13, and dupilumab). The main outcome was a significant change in epithelial functions following exposure to IL-4, IL-13, and dupilumab for 48 h in the basal media. RESULTS IL-4 (1, 10, and 100 ng/mL) but not IL-13 induced a significant decrease in occludin and zonula-occludens protein expression, ciliary beating efficiency, and wound repair rate in HNEC. Dupilumab (0.04 mg/mL) had no effect on HNEC and specifically restored all epithelial functions altered when cells were exposed to a 48-h IL-4 stimulation. CONCLUSION Dupilumab, in vitro, restored epithelial integrity by counteracting the effect of IL-4 on the epithelial barrier (increased epithelial permeability, decreased ciliary beating efficiency, and decreased wound repair rate).

Characteristics of mucin hypersecretion in different inflammatory patterns based on endotypes of chronic rhinosinusitis. Clin Transl Allergy 2024; 14:e12334. [PMID: 38282195 PMCID: PMC10802810 DOI: 10.1002/clt2.12334] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is usually accompanied by mucin hypersecretion that can lead to mucus accumulation and impair nasal mucociliary clearance, thus exacerbating airway inflammation. Abnormal mucin hypersecretion is regulated by different T helper (Th) cytokines, which are associated with different endotype-driven inflammatory responses. Therefore, it is of great significance to understand how these factors regulate mucin hypersecretion to provide precise treatment strategies for different endotypes of CRS. BODY: Thus far, the most common endotypes of CRS are classified as type 1, type 2, or type 3 immune responses based on innate and adaptive cell-mediated effector immunity, and the representative Th cytokines in these immune responses, such as IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-10, IL-17, and IL-22, play an important regulatory role in mucin secretion. We reviewed all the related literature in the PubMed database to determine the expression of these Th cytokines in CRS and the role they play in the regulation of mucin secretion. CONCLUSION We believe that the main Th cytokines involved in specific endotypes of CRS play a key role in regulating abnormal mucin secretion, which contributes to better understanding of the pathogenesis of CRS and provides therapeutic targets for airway inflammatory diseases associated with mucin hypersecretion.

Exploring causal relationships between inflammatory cytokines and allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, and nasal polyps: a Mendelian randomization study. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1288517. [PMID: 38022554 PMCID: PMC10667686 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1288517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives Previous research has suggested connections between specific inflammatory cytokines and nasal conditions, including Allergic Rhinitis (AR), Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS), and Nasal Polyps (NP). However, a lack of robust research establishing the causal underpinnings of them. This Mendelian Randomization (MR) study aims to evaluate the causal relationships between 41 inflammatory cytokines and the incidence of AR, CRS and NP. Methods This study employed a two-sample MR design, harnessing genetic variations derived from publicly accessible genome-wide association studies (GWAS) datasets. AR data was sourced from a GWAS with 25,486 cases and 87,097 controls (identifier: ukb-b-7178). CRS data originated from a GWAS encompassing 1,179 cases and 360,015 controls (identifier: ukb-d-J32). NP data was extracted from a GWAS involving 1,637 cases and 335,562 controls (identifier: ukb-a-541). The data for 41 inflammatory cytokines were obtained from an independent GWAS encompassing 8,293 participants. Inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR Egger regression and Weighted median were used to evaluate the causalities of exposures and outcomes. A range of sensitivity analyses were implemented to assess the robustness of the results. Results The results revealed significant associations between elevated circulating levels of MIP-1α (odds ratio, OR: 1.01798, 95% confidence interval, CI: 1.00217-1.03404, p = 0.02570) and TNF-α (OR: 1.01478, 95% CI: 1.00225-1.02746, p = 0.02067) with an augmented risk of AR in the IVW approach. Heightened levels of circulating IL-2 exhibited a positive correlation with an increased susceptibility to NP in the IVW approach (OR: 1.00129, 95% CI: 1.00017-1.00242, p = 0.02434), whereas elevated levels of circulating PDGF-BB demonstrated a decreased risk of NP (OR: 0.99920, 95% CI: 0.99841-0.99999, p = 0.047610). The MR analysis between levels of 41 inflammatory cytokines and the incidence of CRS yielded no positive outcomes. Conclusion This investigation proposes a potential causal association between elevated levels of MIP-1α and TNF-α with an elevated risk of AR, as well as an increased risk of NP linked to elevated IL-2 levels. Furthermore, there appears to be a potential association between increased levels of circulating PDGF-BB and a reduced risk of NP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous condition characterized by differing inflammatory endotypes. The identification of suitable biomarkers could enable personalized approaches to treatment selection. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify and summarize clinical studies of biomarkers in adults with CRS in order to inform future research into CRS endotypes. METHODS We conducted systematic searches of MEDLINE and Web of Science from inception to January 30, 2022 and included all clinical studies of adult CRS patients and healthy controls measuring biomarkers using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays or Luminex immunoassays. Outcomes included the name and tissue type of identified biomarkers and expression patterns within CRS phenotypes. Study quality was assessed using the National Institutes of Health quality assessment tool for observational cohort and cross-sectional studies. A narrative synthesis was performed. RESULTS We identified 78 relevant studies involving up to 9394 patients, predominantly with CRS with nasal polyposis. Studies identified 80 biomarkers from nasal tissue, 25 from nasal secretions, 14 from nasal lavage fluid, 24 from serum, and one from urine. The majority of biomarkers found to distinguish CRS phenotypes were identified in nasal tissue, especially in nasal polyps. Serum biomarkers were more commonly found to differentiate CRS from controls. The most frequently measured biomarker was IL-5, followed by IL-13 and IL-4. Serum IgE, IL-17, pentraxin-3 and nasal phospho-janus kinase 2, IL-5, IL-6, IL-17A, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, and interferon gamma were identified as correlated with disease severity. CONCLUSION We have identified numerous potential biomarkers to differentiate a range of CRS phenotypes. Future studies should focus on the prognostic role of nasal tissue biomarkers or expand on the more limited studies of nasal secretions and nasal lavage fluid.We registered this study in PROSPERO (CRD42022302787).

Abstract
The pathophysiology of CRS is multifactorial and complex yet needs to be completed. Recent evidence emphasizes the crucial part played by epithelial cells in the development of CRS. The epithelial cells act as physical barriers and play crucial roles in host defense, including initiating and shaping innate and adaptive immune responses. This review aims to present a comprehensive understanding of the significance of nasal epithelial cells in CRS. New research suggests that epithelial dysfunction plays a role in developing CRS through multiple mechanisms. This refers to issues with a weakened barrier function, disrupted mucociliary clearance, and irregular immune responses. When the epithelial barrier is compromised, it can lead to the passage of pathogens and allergens, triggering inflammation in the body. Furthermore, impaired mucociliary clearance can accumulate pathogens and secretions of inflammatory mediators, promoting chronic inflammation. Epithelial cells can release cytokines and chemokines, which attract and activate immune cells. This can result in an imbalanced immune response that continues to cause inflammation. The interaction between nasal epithelial cells and various immune cells leads to the production of cytokines and chemokines, which can either increase or decrease inflammation. By comprehending the role of epithelial cells in CRS, we can enhance our understanding of the disease's pathogenesis and explore new therapeutics.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Approximately 5%-12% of the population worldwide suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). CRS is defined as a chronic respiratory disease and is considered to be a risk factor for COVID-19 patients. AREAS COVERED A non-systematic literature research was conducted on COVID-19 and treatment options for CRSwNP. The latest international publications in medical databases, international guidelines, and the internet were reviewed. Since there were no publications on all aspects of this topic during the pandemic, we included our own experience in this report. Based on the conducted literature research in addition to our previously reported experience, we discuss the treatment of CRSwNP during the COVID-19 pandemic and what can be taken for future pandemics. EXPERT OPINION Intranasal corticosteroids remain the standard treatment for CRS in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Indications for surgical treatment of CRS should be critically evaluated and reserved for patients with complications and those with no other treatment options. For this purpose, COVID-19 status should be known if possible and, in case of unclear status (emergency), using appropriate personal protective equipment. Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided were possible. Biological treatment should be continued under careful monitoring in uninfected patients and should be temporarily interrupted during COVID-19 infection.

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
BACKGROUND International consensus statements now subdivide chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) into several phenotypes and endotypes, including the presence of polyps (CRSwNP) and eosinophilia (eCRSwNP). Biological treatments aimed at blocking eosinophilic inflammation in CRSwNP via interleukin 5 (IL5) or the interleukin 5 receptor (IL5R) have demonstrated limited efficacy thus far. OBJECTIVE To review the pathophysiology of eCRSwNP, the evidence for mepolizumab (anti-IL5) and benralizumab (anti-IL5R) in CRSwNP, and to highlight areas for future research and therapeutic intervention. METHODS Primary and secondary literature search. RESULTS Clinical trials on mepolizumab and benralizumab in CRSwNP are limited and restricted by trial design which prevents direct comparison with other interventions, including surgery. Both agents would appear to provide some benefit in reducing nasal polyp size but limited clinical patient benefit. Molecular biological research highlights that eCRSwNP can occur in the absence of IL5 and that other cells/cytokines play an important part in the disease's pathophysiology. CONCLUSION Blockade of IL5/IL5R alone would appear to provide limited "real life" clinical benefit in patients with CRSwNP due to the complexities of the pathophysiology of the condition. Therapy aimed at several simultaneous cytokine targets has logic but well-designed trials are unlikely to be forthcoming in the short term due to the financial cost and commercial conflicts of interest.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a heterogenous group of inflammatory conditions impacting the nose and paranasal sinuses. Our understanding of the underlying pathobiology of CRSwNP has substantially improved due to ongoing translational research efforts. Advances in treatment options, including targeted respiratory biologic therapy for CRSwNP, allow for more personalized approaches for CRSwNP patient care. Patients with CRSwNP are typically classified to one or more endotype based on the presence of type 1, type 2, and type 3 inflammation. This review will discuss recent advances in our understanding of CRSwNP and how this may impact current and future treatment approaches for patients with CRSwNP.

Abstract
Vitamin D is thought to play an inflammatory modulatory role in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) & it also affects the severity of inflammation so the study was focused on the evaluation of serum vitamin D & interleukins in CRSwNP. The prospective study was conducted on clinic-radiological confirmed cases. The patients were not operated prior, clubbed under primary nasal polyposis (PNP) group and the patients were operated prior, clubbed under recurrent nasal polyposis (RNP) group. The subjective and objective severity of the disease was assessed by sino-nasal outcome score (SNOT 22) & NCCT PNS & orbit. Serum levels of cytokines (IL4, IL 5, and IL 13) were quantified using the ELISA method using the Human Interleukin antibody coated ELISA kit. Measurement of vitamin D was done by using recombinant ruthenium-labelled VDBP. There was a significant difference in Vitamin D, AEC, IL 4, IL 5, IL 13 levels in the disease groups compared to control group. Low vitamin D, high SNOT & high absolute eosinophil count (AEC) count was noticed in both disease groups. Vitamin D may play a significant role in nasal polyposis formation. For the establishment of interaction, a community based larger study is required as the prevalence of low vitamin D level is high in Indian population.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a subset of endogenous RNAs highly conservative with short chains, play key regulatory role in the biological relevant events of the cells. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles like the plasma membrane components being able to deliver information molecules such as miRNA between cells and to regulate the fate of the target cells. The progression of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is closely associated with significant alterations of miRNA levels in both cells and exosomes. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been acknowledged to play important roles in intracellular miRNA transport to exosomes, and specific membrane proteins such as caveolin-1 critically involved in HNRNPA1 -mediated transport of miRNA to exosomes. Aberrant alteration in endogenous miRNA levels significantly contributes to the process of airway remodeling in the nasal tissue and to the occurrence and progression of inflammatory responses in CRSwNP. Exogenous miRNAs delivered via exosomes has also been shown to play an important role in activating macrophages or in regulating vascular permeability in the CRSwNP.This paper highlights the mechanism of RBP-mediated delivery of miRNAs to exosomes and the important contribution of endogenous miRNAs to the development of CRSwNP in response to inflammation and airway remodeling. Finally, we discuss the future research directions for regulation of the miRNAs to CRSwNP.Delivery of exogenous miRNAs by exosomes alters the endogenous miRNAs content in nasal mucosal epithelial cells or in associated inflammatory cells in the CRSwNP, and altered endogenous miRNAs affects the inflammatory response and airway remodeling, which then regulates the occurrence and progression of CRSwNP.RBPs and associated membrane proteins such as caveolin-1 may play a crucial role in the entry of exogenous miRNA into exosomes.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is related to persistent inflammation with a dysfunctional relationship between environmental agents and the host immune system. Disturbances in the functioning of the sinus mucosa lead to common clinical symptoms. The major processes involved in the pathogenesis of CRS include airway epithelial dysfunctions that are influenced by external and host-derived factors which activate multiple immunological mechanisms. The molecular bases for CRS remain unclear, although some factors commonly correspond to the disease: bacterial, fungal and viral infections, comorbidity diseases, genetic dysfunctions, and immunodeficiency. Additionally, air pollution leads increased severity of symptoms. CRS is a heterogeneous group of sinus diseases with different clinical courses and response to treatment. Immunological pathways vary depending on the endotype or genotype of the patient. The recent knowledge expansion into mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of CRS is leading to a steadily increasing significance of precision medicine in the treatment of CRS. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge regarding the immunological aspects of CRS, which are essential for ensuring more effective treatment strategies.

Abstract
Prohemistomum vivax is a small trematode belonging to the family Cyathocotylidae, infecting fish-eating birds and mammals, including humans. However, no data on molecular identification and immune pathogenesis are available, challenging effective diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Here, we identified P. vivax based on combined morphological and molecular data and examined histopathological lesions and the differential cytokines expression in experimentally infected pigeons. Pigeons were orally infected with 500 prohemistomid metacercariae. Intestinal and spleen tissues were harvested 2, 4, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days post-infection (dpi). Gene expression levels of eleven cytokines (IL-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-15, IL-18, IFN-γ, and TGF-β3) were assessed using quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (RT-qPCR). We identified the recovered flukes as Prohemistomum vivax based on morphological features and the sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1), 5.8 ribosomal RNA, and ITS2 region. Histopathological lesions were induced as early as 2 dpi, with the intensity of villi atrophy and inflammatory cell infiltration increasing as the infection progressed. An early immunosuppressive state (2 and 4 dpi), with TGF-β3 overexpression, developed to allow parasite colonization. A mixed Th1/Th2 immune response (overexpressed IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-5) was activated as the infection progressed from 7 to 28 dpi. Inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, IL-18, and IL-15) were generally overexpressed at 7–28 dpi, peaking at 7 or 14 dpi. The upregulated Treg IL-10 expression peaking between 21 and 28 dpi might promote the Th1/Th2 balance and immune homeostasis to protect the host from excessive tissue pathology and inflammation. The intestine and spleen expressed a significantly different relative quantity of cytokines throughout the infection. To conclude, our results presented distinct cytokine alteration throughout P. vivax infection in pigeons, which may aid in understanding the immune pathogenesis and host defense mechanism against this infection.

Abstract
Hintergrund: Die chronische Rhinosinusitis mit Nasenpolypen (CRSwNP) ist eine multifaktorielle entzündliche Erkrankung der paranasalen Schleimhäute, der als Endotyp meistens eine Typ-2-Inflammation zugrunde liegt. Mittlerweile sind drei Antikörper (Dupilumab, Omalizumab und Mepolizumab) für die Therapie der schweren CRSwNP zugelassen. Eine Dokumentation der Erkrankungsschwere im Behandlungsverlauf ist unverzichtbar. Methoden: In einer Literaturrecherche in Medline, Pubmed sowie den nationalen und internationalen Studien- und Leitlinienregistern und der Cochrane Library wurde die Immunologie der CRSwNP analysiert und die Evidenz zur Wirkung von Dupilumab, Omalizumab und Mepolizumab bei dieser Erkrankung ermittelt. Hieraus wurden drei Positionspapiere durch unsere Autorengruppe erstellt, die Grundlage dieser zusammenfassenden Übersichtsarbeit sind. Ergebnisse: Basierend auf den Angaben aus der internationalen Literatur werden von einem Expertengremium Empfehlungen für die Anwendung von Dupilumab, Omalizumab und Mepolizumab bei CRSwNP im deutschen Gesundheitssystem gegeben. Schlussfolgerung: Dupilumab, Omalizumab und Mepolizumab sind zugelassen für Patienten ab 18 Jahren mit schwerer CRSwNP als Zusatztherapie zu intranasalen Glukokortikosteroiden (INCS), wenn, bei Dupilumab und Mepolizumab, durch eine Therapie mit systemischen Glukokortikosteroiden und/oder chirurgischem Eingriff keine ausreichende Krankheitskontrolle erzielt werden kann. Eine Therapie mit Omalizumab ist angezeigt, wenn eine Therapie mit INCS keine suffiziente Kontrolle der Erkrankung ergibt. Es werden dezidierte Empfehlungen zur Dokumentation der Anwendung im Deutschen Gesundheitssystem gegeben, die auf den hierzu bereits publizierten Positionspapieren unserer Autorengruppe basieren.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is considered a nasal sinus inflammatory disease that can be dominated by immune cells and cytokines. IL-10 family cytokines exert essential functions in immune responses during infection and inflammation. Recently, the understanding of the roles of the IL-10 family in CRSwNP is being reconsidered. IL-10 family members are now considered complex cytokines that are capable of affecting epithelial function and involved in allergies and infections. Furthermore, the IL-10 family responds to glucocorticoid treatment, and there have been clinical trials of therapies manipulating these cytokines to remedy airway inflammatory diseases. Here, we summarize the recent progress in the understanding of IL-10 family cytokines in CRSwNP and suggest more specific strategies to exploit these cytokines for the effective treatment of CRSwNP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dupilumab, a mAb targeting IL-4Rα, improves upper and lower airway symptoms in patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), but the mechanisms leading to clinical improvement are not fully elucidated. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to identify the mechanistic basis of clinical improvement in patients with AERD treated with dupilumab. METHODS A total of 22 patients with AERD were treated with dupilumab for 3 months for severe asthma and/or chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Clinical outcomes were assessed at baseline and at 1 and 3 months after initiation of dupilumab. Nasal fluid, urine, blood, and inferior turbinate scrapings were collected at the 3 time points for determination of mediator levels, cellular assays, and RNA sequencing. RESULTS Participants had rapid improvement in clinical measures, including sense of smell, sinonasal symptoms, and lung function after 1 month of treatment with dupilumab; the improvements were sustained after 3 months of dupilumab. Baseline severity of smell loss was correlated with lower nasal prostaglandin E2 levels. Dupilumab increased nasal prostaglandin E2 level and decreased levels of nasal albumin, nasal and urinary leukotriene E4, and serum and nasal IgE. Transcripts related to epithelial dysfunction and leukocyte activation and migration were downregulated in inferior turbinate tissue after treatment with dupilumab. There were no dupilumab-induced changes in nasal eosinophilia. CONCLUSION Inhibition of IL-4Rα in AERD led to rapid improvement in respiratory symptoms and smell, with a concomitant improvement in epithelial barrier function, a decrease in inflammatory eicosanoid levels, and an increase in the anti-inflammatory eicosanoid prostaglandin E2 level. The therapeutic effects of dupilumab are likely due to decreased IL-4Rα signaling on respiratory tissue granulocytes, epithelial cells, and B cells.

Abstract
Ancylostoma ceylanicum is a zoonotic soil-derived nematode that parasitizes human and animal intestines, causing malnutrition and iron-deficiency anemia. Calreticulin is a multifunctional protein involved in all stages of parasitic infection. Studies have found that parasites can secret calreticulin to regulate the host's immune response. To explore the immunogenicity of the eukaryotic expression plasmid of Ancylostoma ceylanicum calreticulin (Ace-CRT), we constructed a recombinant Ace-CRT eukaryotic expression plasmid (pEGFP-N3-Ace-CRT). Successful expression of the target protein in Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK) 293 T cells was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis. BALB/c mice were immunized with pEGFP-N3-Ace-CRT plasmid. Measuring IgG antibody levels in immunized mice sera by ELISA showed that the recombinant plasmid stimulated IgG antibody production in mice. Spleen lymphocytes were collected from vaccinated mice to determine the proportion of T cell subsets and the expression levels of cytokines. Flow cytometry revealed that the percentage of CD3 + CD4+ and CD3 + CD8+ T cells in mice spleen in the immunization group was significantly higher than that in the control group. Recombinant plasmid immunization increased IL-4, IL-10, IL-12, and IL-13 expression while decreasing IL-5, IL-6, and INF-γ in mice spleens. These results indicate that the eukaryotic plasmid constructed in this study had good immunogenicity and mainly induced a T helper 2 response in the host, laying a foundation for screening candidate molecules for anti-hookworm vaccines.

Abstract
Chronic type 2 (T2) inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract are characterized by mucus overproduction and disordered mucociliary function, which are largely attributed to the effects of IL-13 on common epithelial cell types (mucus secretory and ciliated cells). The role of rare cells in airway T2 inflammation is less clear, though tuft cells have been shown to be critical in the initiation of T2 immunity in the intestine. Using bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing of airway epithelium and mouse modeling, we found that IL-13 expanded and programmed airway tuft cells toward eicosanoid metabolism and that tuft cell deficiency led to a reduction in airway prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) concentration. Allergic airway epithelia bore a signature of PGE2 activation, and PGE2 activation led to cystic fibrosis transmembrane receptor-dependent ion and fluid secretion and accelerated mucociliary transport. These data reveal a role for tuft cells in regulating epithelial mucociliary function in the allergic airway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a multifactorial inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinus mucosa with eosinophilic inflammation as the most common endotype. The anti-IL5 antibody mepolizumab was approved for the treatment of severe CRSwNP in the EU in November 2021. METHODS A literature search was performed to analyze the immunology of CRSwNP and determine the available evidence by searching Medline, Pubmed, and the German national and international trial and guideline registries and the Cochrane Library. Human studies published in the period up to and including 12/2021 that investigated the effect of mepolizumab in CRSwNP were considered. RESULTS Based on the international literature and previous experience, recommendations for the use of mepolizumab in CRSwNP in the German health care system are given by an expert panel on the basis of a documentation form. CONCLUSIONS Understanding about the immunological basis of CRSwNP opens new non-surgical therapeutic approaches with biologics for patients with severe courses. Mepolizumab is approved since November 2021 for add-on therapy with intranasal corticosteroids for the treatment of adult patients with severe CRSwNP who cannot be adequately controlled with systemic corticosteroids and/or surgical intervention.

Abstract
The human airway is protected by a defensive mucus barrier. The most prominent components of mucus are the mucin glycoproteins MUC5AC and MUC5B. They are produced by goblet cells and submucosal gland cells in the upper and lower airways. Hyperplasia of these cells and hypersecretion of MUC5AC and MUC5B characterize chronic inflammatory diseases of the upper and lower airways. Recent studies have revealed that MUC5AC and MUC5B are expressed at specific sites in the respiratory tract through different molecular mechanisms and have distinct functions. Morphometric and histochemical studies have also examined the roles of goblet cells, submucosal gland cells, MUC5AC, and MUC5B in different chronic airway diseases individually. The individual study of goblet cells, submucosal gland cells, MUC5AC, and MUC5B in airway diseases would be helpful for precisely diagnosing chronic inflammatory diseases of the airway and establishing optimal treatments. This review focuses on the distinct secretion of MUC5AC and MUC5B and their producing cells in chronic inflammatory diseases of the upper and lower airway.

Abstract
During the past years, there has been a global outbreak of allergic diseases, presenting a considerable medical and socioeconomical burden. A large fraction of allergic diseases is characterized by a type 2 immune response involving Th2 cells, type 2 innate lymphoid cells, eosinophils, mast cells, and M2 macrophages. Biomarkers are valuable parameters for precision medicine as they provide information on the disease endotypes, clusters, precision diagnoses, identification of therapeutic targets, and monitoring of treatment efficacies. The availability of powerful omics technologies, together with integrated data analysis and network‐based approaches can help the identification of clinically useful biomarkers. These biomarkers need to be accurately quantified using robust and reproducible methods, such as reliable and point‐of‐care systems. Ideally, samples should be collected using quick, cost‐efficient and noninvasive methods. In recent years, a plethora of research has been directed toward finding novel biomarkers of allergic diseases. Promising biomarkers of type 2 allergic diseases include sputum eosinophils, serum periostin and exhaled nitric oxide. Several other biomarkers, such as pro‐inflammatory mediators, miRNAs, eicosanoid molecules, epithelial barrier integrity, and microbiota changes are useful for diagnosis and monitoring of allergic diseases and can be quantified in serum, body fluids and exhaled air. Herein, we review recent studies on biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of asthma, chronic urticaria, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, food allergies, anaphylaxis, drug hypersensitivity and allergen immunotherapy. In addition, we discuss COVID‐19 and allergic diseases within the perspective of biomarkers and recommendations on the management of allergic and asthmatic patients during the COVID‐19 pandemic.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund Die chronische Rhinosinusitis mit Nasenpolypen (CRSwNP) ist eine multifaktorielle entzündliche Erkrankung der paranasalen Schleimhäute, der als Endotyp meistens eine TH2-Inflammation zugrunde liegt. IgE-Antikörper spielen dabei eine wichtige Rolle. Der anti-IgE-Antikörper Omalizumab wurde im August 2020 für die Therapie der schweren CRSwNP zugelassen.
Methoden In einer Literatursuche wurde die Immunologie der CRSwNP analysiert und die Evidenz zur Wirkung von Omalizumab bei dieser Erkrankung ermittelt durch Recherchen in Medline, Pubmed sowie den nationalen und internationalen Studien- und Leitlinien-Registern und der Cochrane Library.
Ergebnisse Basierend auf diesen Angaben aus der internationalen Literatur werden von einem Expertengremium Empfehlungen für die Anwendung von Omalizumab bei CRSwNP im deutschen Gesundheitssystem gegeben.
Schlussfolgerung Omalizumab ist zugelassen für Patienten ab 18 Jahren mit schwerer chronischer Rhinosinusitis mit Nasenpolypen als Zusatztherapie zu intranasalen Kortikosteroiden (INCS), wenn durch eine Therapie mit INCS keine ausreichende Krankheitskontrolle erzielt werden kann.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal polyps (NPs) are a common comorbidity of asthma. Differences in disease endotype and phenotype may have treatment implications for these concomitant conditions, including biologic therapies. OBJECTIVE To determine putative differences in type 2 biomarkers, lung function, and asthma control in patients with asthma with NPs (AwNPs) and those with asthma alone (A). METHODS A total of 140 consecutive patients with moderate to severe asthma with or without endoscopic NPs taking a daily inhaled corticosteroid dose of greater than or equal to 800 µg and at least 1 second-line controller were identified from our National Health Service specialist respiratory and rhinology clinics. Data were collected before starting on biologics, including peripheral blood eosinophils (PBEs), fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), allergy status, spirometry, impulse oscillometry, Asthma Control Questionnaire, oral corticosteroid requiring asthma exacerbations, NP score, and Lund-Mackay score. RESULTS The PBE count and FeNO levels were significantly higher (P < .01), whereas specific and total immunoglobulin E levels (P < .05) were significantly lower in AwNPs vs A. In addition, FeNO had sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 67% for detecting NPs (area under the curve = 0.76; P = .001). Patients with AwNPs had less severe asthma than those with asthma without NPs (A), as reflected by fewer exacerbations (P < .001), lower inhaled corticosteroid dose (P < .001), and less impairment of impulse oscillometry (P < .05). CONCLUSION Patients with moderate to severe asthma with NPs have higher levels of PBE and FeNO despite better asthma control and lower total and specific allergy than those without NPs.

Abstract
Type‐2 (T2) inflammation is a characteristic feature of asthma. Biological therapies have been developed to target T2‐inflammation in asthma. IL‐13 is a key component of T2‐inflammation in asthma, driving mucus hypersecretion, IgE‐induction, and smooth muscle contraction. Early phase clinical trials for treatments that target T2‐inflammation require biomarkers to assess pharmacological effects. The aim of this study was to examine levels of IL‐13 inducible biomarkers in the airway epithelium of patients with mild asthma compared to healthy controls. Ten patients with mild asthma with high blood eosinophil and high fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) were recruited, and six healthy subjects. Blood eosinophil and FeNO reproducibility was assessed prior to bronchoscopy. Epithelial brushings were collected and assessed for IL‐13 inducible gene expression. Blood eosinophil and FeNO levels remained consistent in both patients with asthma and healthy subjects. Of the 11 genes assessed, expression levels of 15LOX1, POSTN, CLCA1, SERPINB2, CCL26, and NOS2 were significantly higher in patients with asthma compared to healthy controls. These six genes, present in patients with mild asthma with T2 inflammation, have the potential to be used in translational early phase asthma clinical trials of novel therapies as bronchial epithelial biomarkers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exosomes are critical mediators of intercellular communication and could be involved in many human diseases; however, little is known about the role of exosomes in nasal polyps (NP). METHODS Exosomes in nasal lavage fluids (NLF) were isolated by ultracentrifugation. Exosome identity was validated by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and specific exosomal markers. The exosome proteome was revealed by LC-MS/MS, and the expression of the candidate exosomal protein, mucin 5AC, was confirmed by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Cellular uptake of the exosomes was monitored by fluorescence confocal microscopy and the ensuing effects on COX-2, VEGF and MMP-2/MMP-9 were determined by Western blotting, ELISA and gelatin zymography, respectively. RESULTS Mass spectrometry analysis and subsequent verification by Western blotting identified that mucin 5AC was significantly upregulated in exosomes from NLFs of NP patients. Moreover, the expression of mucin 5AC was increased in the tissue specimens of the NP patients. Functional assays suggest that the mucin 5 AC-enriched exosomes could be effectively taken up by chronic rhinosinusitis without NP (CRSsNP)-derived fibroblasts, the control cells, resulting in a significant increase in the expression of COX-2, VEGF and MMP-9. CONCLUSIONS Mucin 5AC, the major airway mucin, cannot only be carried and transferred by nasal exosomes, but may also promote tissue remodeling and angiogenesis and thus could be a potential therapeutic target of NP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis is regarded as a chronic airway disease. According to WHO recommendations, it may be a risk factor for COVID-19 patients. In most CRSwNP cases, the inflammatory changes affecting the nasal and paranasal mucous membranes are type-2 (T2) inflammation endotypes. METHODS The current knowledge on COVID-19 and on treatment options for CRS was analyzed by a literature search in Medline, Pubmed, international guidelines, the Cochrane Library and the Internet. RESULTS Based on international literature, on current recommendations by WHO and other international organizations as well as on previous experience, a panel of experts from EAACI and ARIA provided recommendations for the treatment of CRS during the COVID-19 pandemic. CONCLUSION Intranasal corticosteroids remain the standard treatment for CRS in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Surgical treatments should be reduced to a minimum and surgery preserved for patients with local complications and for those with no other treatment options. Systemic corticosteroids should be avoided. Treatment with biologics can be continued with careful monitoring in noninfected patients and should be temporarily interrupted during the course of the COVID-19 infection.

Advances in the Knowledge of the Underlying Airway Remodeling Mechanisms in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Based on the Endotypes: A Review. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22020910.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the nasal and paranasal sinus mucosa that affects up to 10% of the population worldwide. CRS is the most representative disease of the upper respiratory tract where airway remodeling occurs, including epithelial damage, thickening of the basement membrane, fibrosis, goblet cell hyperplasia, subepithelial edema, and osteitis. CRS is divided into two phenotypes according to the presence or absence of nasal polyps: CRS with nasal polyp (CRSwNP) and CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). Based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism, CRS is also classified as eosinophilic CRS and non-eosinophilic CRS, owing to Type 2 T helper (Th2)-based inflammation and Type 1 T helper (Th1)/Type 17 T helper (Th17) skewed immune response, respectively. Differences in tissue remodeling in CRS are suggested to be based on the clinical phenotype and endotypes; this is because fibrosis is prominent in CRSsNP, whereas edematous changes occur in CRSwNP, especially in the eosinophilic type. This review aims to summarize the latest information on the different mechanisms of airway remodeling in CRS according to distinct endotypes.

Abstract
Modern health care requires a proactive and individualized response to diseases, combining precision diagnosis and personalized treatment. Accordingly, the approach to patients with allergic diseases encompasses novel developments in the area of personalized medicine, disease phenotyping and endotyping, and the development and application of reliable biomarkers. A detailed clinical history and physical examination followed by the detection of IgE immunoreactivity against specific allergens still represents the state of the art. However, nowadays, further emphasis focuses on the optimization of diagnostic and therapeutic standards and a large number of studies have been investigating the biomarkers of allergic diseases, including asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, food allergy, urticaria and anaphylaxis. Various biomarkers have been developed by omics technologies, some of which lead to a better classification of distinct phenotypes or endotypes. The introduction of biologicals to clinical practice increases the need for biomarkers for patient selection, prediction of outcomes and monitoring, to allow for an adequate choice of the duration of these costly and long‐lasting therapies. Escalating healthcare costs together with questions about the efficacy of the current management of allergic diseases require further development of a biomarker‐driven approach. Here, we review biomarkers in diagnosis and treatment of asthma, atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, viral infections, chronic rhinosinusitis, food allergy, drug hypersensitivity and allergen immunotherapy with a special emphasis on specific IgE, the microbiome and the epithelial barrier. In addition, EAACI guidelines on biologicals are discussed within the perspective of biomarkers.

Multiomic analysis identifies natural intrapatient temporal variability and changes in response to systemic corticosteroid therapy in chronic rhinosinusitis. IMMUNITY INFLAMMATION AND DISEASE 2020; 9:90-107.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pathophysiology and temporal dynamics of affected tissues in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a multiomics-based time-series assessment of nasal polyp biopsies from three patients with CRS, assessing natural variability over time and local response to systemic corticosteroid therapy. METHODS Polyp tissue biopsies were collected at three time points over two consecutive weeks. Patients were prescribed prednisone (30 mg daily) for 1 week between Collections 2 and 3. Polyp transcriptome, proteome, and microbiota were assessed via RNAseq, SWATH mass spectrometry, and 16S ribosomal RNA and ITS2 amplicon sequencing. Baseline interpatient variability, natural intrapatient variability over time, and local response to systemic corticosteroids, were investigated. RESULTS Overall, the highly abundant transcripts and proteins were associated with pathways involved in inflammation, FAS, cadherin, integrin, Wnt, apoptosis, and cytoskeletal signaling, as well as coagulation and B- and T-cell activation. Transcripts and proteins that naturally varied over time included those involved with inflammation- and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related pathways, and a number of common candidate target biomarkers of CRS. Ten transcripts responded significantly to corticosteroid therapy, including downregulation of TNF, CCL20, and GSDMA, and upregulation of OVGP1, and PCDHGB1. Members of the bacterial genus Streptococcus positively correlated with immunoglobulin proteins IGKC and IGHG1. CONCLUSIONS Understanding natural dynamics of CRS-associated tissues is essential to provide baseline context for all studies on putative biomarkers, mechanisms, and subtypes of CRS. These data further our understanding of the natural dynamics within nasal polypoid tissue, as well as local changes in response to systemic corticosteroid therapy.

Abstract
Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a complex immunological upper airway disease . CRSwNP, particularly in Caucasians, often has a more distinct T2 inflammatory endotype. IL-4 and IL-13 are key upstream cytokines that help establish and sustain T2 inflammation as well as strongly influencing tissue remodeling. They have a shared signaling receptor IL-4Rα. An attractive and novel therapeutic approach is by way of blocking IL-4 and IL-13 simultaneously via inhibiting IL-4Rα. Dupilumab is a murine derived fully human monoclonal inhibitory antibody directed against IL-4Rα which thereby prevents IL-4/IL-13 cell signaling. Following successful Phase 3 studies dupilumab has become the first licensed biologic for treating CRSwNP. Areas covered: This review covers the essential immunology of CRSwNP in the context of IL-4 and IL-13 signaling via IL-4Rα. The potential mechanisms by which therapeutic improvements occur with dupilumab are evaluated. IL-4, IL-13, dupilumab and rhinosinusitis were used as the search terms in PubMed and Google Scholar through to August 2020. Expert commentary: Dupilumab has the potential to transform the care for patients with CRSwNP. It is essential that further studies are conducted promptly to identify disease-specific biomarkers and clinical traits to guide clinicians on best patient selection thereby ensuring optimal dupilumab outcomes.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) occurs in >10% of the adult population in Europe and the USA and can be differentiated into CRS without nasal polyps and CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Both phenotypes are characterized by a high disease burden and an overlapping spectrum of symptoms, with facial pain and loss of smell being the most differentiating. Great progress has been made in the understanding of CRS pathophysiology: from the epithelium and epithelial-mesenchymal transition to innate and adaptive immunity pathways and, finally, on the role of eosinophils and Staphylococcus aureus in the persistence of disease. Although clinical manifestations and diagnostic tools (including nasal endoscopy and imaging) have undergone major changes over the past few years, management (including pharmacotherapy, surgery and biologics) has experienced enormous progress based on the growing knowledge of key mediators in severe CRSwNP. The introduction of endotyping has led to a differentiation of 'tailored' surgical approaches, focusing on the mucosal concept in those with severe CRSwNP and on the identification of patients eligible for extended surgery and possibly biologics in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review highlights the expression and regulation of mucin in CRS and discusses its clinical implications. RECENT FINDINGS Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is common chronic nasal disease; one of its main manifestations and important features is mucus overproduction. Mucin is the major component of mucus and plays a critical role in the pathophysiological changes in CRS. The phenotype of CRS affects the expression of various mucins, especially in nasal polyps (NP). Corticosteroids(CS), human neutrophil elastase (HNE), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) are closely related to the tissue remodeling of CRS and regulate mucin expression, mainly MUC1, MUC4, MUC5AC, and MUC5B. "It is expected that CS, HNE and TGF - β could be used to regulate the expression of mucin in CRS." However, at present, the research on mucin is mainly focused on mucin 5AC and mucin 5B, which is bad for finding new therapeutic targets. Investigating the expression and location of mucin in nasal mucosa and understanding the role of various inflammatory factors in mucin expression are helpful to figure out regulatory mechanisms of airway mucin hypersecretion. It is of great significance for the treatment of CRS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a spectrum of complex inflammatory conditions of the sinonasal mucosa. Identification of biomarkers that enable classification and improved delineation among CRS endotypes is of increasing interest. However, the extent to which less invasive sampling methods identify genuine tissue inflammatory patterns is not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate mucosal swab and cytobrush sampling as less invasive proxies for tissue transcription levels of putative biomarkers of CRS. METHODS Expression levels of 21 biomarkers of interest were assessed via custom TaqMan array cards from mucosal biopsy, cytobrush, and swab samples, in 32 patients with CRS. Reported expression levels were compared between each of the 3 sample types within each patient. RESULTS Reported transcription levels from swab samples for IL33, MUC5AC, IL1RN, CXCL8 (IL-8), TNF, IFNG, IL5, OSM, IL1A, and IL17C, and cytobrush levels for IL33, MUC5AC, IL5RA, IL1RN, CXCL8 (IL-8), and IL5 were significantly different to tissue levels from matched biopsy samples. CONCLUSION Reported expression via swab and cytobrush sampling differed from patterns observed in matched tissue for 10 of 21 and 6 of 21 markers, respectively. Non-biopsy-based studies for these particular markers may therefore not adequately represent tissue inflammatory processes and should be interpreted with caution. Cytobrush samples largely tracked tissue patterns for the remaining target biomarkers. In these cases, cytobrush sampling appears to adequately reflect tissue patterns for several putative biomarkers of CRS, supporting their use in clinical and research settings as a less-invasive proxy for the assessment of mucosal tissue inflammatory transcription patterns.

Abstract
Hintergrund Von der chronischen Rhinosinusitis (CRS) sind weltweit etwa 5–12 % der Allgemeinbevölkerung betroffen. Die CRS gilt als chronische Atemwegserkrankung, die nach den Empfehlungen der WHO ein Risikofaktor für COVID-19-Patienten sein kann. Die entzündlichen Veränderungen der Nasenschleimhäute bei chronischer Rhinosinusitis mit Nasenpolypen (CRSwNP) sind in den meisten Fällen vom Entzündungsendotyp 2 (T2). Methoden Der aktuelle Wissensstand sowohl zu COVID-19 als auch zu den Behandlungsmöglichkeiten von CRSwNP wurde durch eine Literaturrecherche in Medline, Pubmed, internationalen Leitlinien, der Cochrane Library und im Internet analysiert. Ergebnisse Auf Grundlage der internationalen Literatur, der aktuellen Empfehlungen der WHO und anderer internationaler Organisationen sowie der bisherigen Erfahrungen gab ein Expertengremium von EAACI und ARIA Empfehlungen für die Behandlung von CRSwNP während der COVID-19-Pandemien. Schlussfolgerung Intranasale Kortikosteroide stellen die Standardbehandlung für CRS bei Patienten mit einer SARS-CoV-2-Infektion dar. Chirurgische Behandlungen sollten auf ein Minimum reduziert werden und nur bei Patienten mit lokalen Komplikationen und solchen, für die keine anderen Behandlungsmöglichkeiten bestehen, durchgeführt werden. Systemische Kortikosteroide sollten bei COVID-19-Patienten vermieden werden. Die Behandlung mit Biologika kann bei nicht infizierten Patienten unter sorgfältiger Überwachung fortgesetzt werden und sollte während einer SARS-CoV-2-Infektion vorübergehend unterbrochen werden.

Activation of the 15-lipoxygenase pathway in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2020; 147:600-612. [PMID: 32371071 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaci.2020.04.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2019] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 04/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is characterized by asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), and an intolerance of medications that inhibit cyclooxygenase-1. Patients with AERD have more severe upper and lower respiratory tract disease than do aspirin-tolerant patients with CRSwNP. A dysregulation in arachidonic acid metabolism is thought to contribute to the enhanced sinonasal inflammation in AERD. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to utilize an unbiased approach investigating arachidonic acid metabolic pathways in AERD. METHODS Single-cell RNA sequencing (10× Genomics, Pleasanton, Calif) was utilized to compare the transcriptional profile of nasal polyp (NP) cells from patients with AERD and patients with CRSwNP and map differences in the expression of select genes among identified cell types. Findings were confirmed by traditional real-time PCR. Lipid mediators in sinonasal tissue were measured by mass spectrometry. Localization of various proteins within NPs was assessed by immunofluorescence. RESULTS The gene encoding for 15-lipooxygenase (15-LO), ALOX15, was significantly elevated in NPs of patients with AERD compared to NPs of patients with CRSwNP (P < .05) or controls (P < .001). ALOX15 was predominantly expressed by epithelial cells. Expression levels significantly correlated with radiographic sinus disease severity (r = 0.56; P < .001) and were associated with asthma. The level of 15-oxo-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-Oxo-ETE), a downstream product of 15-LO, was significantly elevated in NPs from patients with CRSwNP (27.93 pg/mg of tissue) and NPs from patients with AERD (61.03 pg/mg of tissue) compared to inferior turbinate tissue from controls (7.17 pg/mg of tissue [P < .001]). Hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase, an enzyme required for 15-Oxo-ETE synthesis, was predominantly expressed in mast cells and localized near 15-LO+ epithelium in NPs from patients with AERD. CONCLUSIONS Epithelial and mast cell interactions, leading to the synthesis of 15-Oxo-ETE, may contribute to the dysregulation of arachidonic acid metabolism via the 15-LO pathway and to the enhanced sinonasal disease severity observed in AERD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a common and heterogeneous inflammatory condition, for which the drivers of the underlying inflammation are not yet fully understood. The use of biologic therapies to target specifically relevant effector cells or cytokines in CRSwNP is a growing field of interest. The objectives of this review are to provide an update on the existing studies of biologics in CRSwNP and to identify potential future areas for further research. DATA SOURCES An initial literature review of biologic therapies in CRS was performed through publications gathered from a PubMed search for title/abstract containing "biologic" and "chronic rhinosinusitis." Further manuscripts describing scientific premise for each biologic were then reviewed. STUDY SELECTIONS A detailed review of all studies describing biologic therapies targeting inflammation in CRSwNP was performed. RESULTS Biologic therapies targeting interleukin (IL)-4Rα, IL-5, IL-5Rα, IL-33, immunoglobulin (Ig)E, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) have all been developed and have been investigated for treatment in CRSwNP, or current research suggests that they may have utility in this area. Only dupilumab, which inhibits IL-4Rα, has gained Food and Drug Administration approval for the treatment of adults with inadequately controlled CRSwNP. CONCLUSION Recent advances in our understanding of the fundamental drivers of the chronic respiratory inflammation in CRSwNP has led to the identification of several potential therapeutic targets for this disease. Future clinical success will rely on the availability of biomarker-based endotyping and responder analyses so that clinicians can precisely match each patient to the appropriate biologic, thereby optimizing the proper treatment strategy.

Abstract
Our understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is continuously evolving. The traditional description of CRS in terms of two phenotypes based on the presence or absence of nasal polyps belies the underlying intricate immunopathophysiological processes responsible for this condition. CRS is being increasingly recognized as a disease spectrum encompassing a range of inflammatory states in the sinonasal cavity, with non-type 2 inflammatory disease on one end, type 2 inflammatory, eosinophil-heavy disease on the other and an overlap of both in different proportions in between. Abundance in research on the immune mechanisms of CRS has revealed various new endotypes that hold promise as biomarkers for the development of targeted therapies in severe, uncontrolled CRS. The introduction of precision medicine to manage this chronic, complex condition is a step forward in providing individualized care for all patients with CRS. In this review, the latest research on the pathophysiology of CRS with a focus on potential novel biomarkers and treatment options over the last 2 years are summarized and integrated into a suggested model of precision medicine in CRS.

Abstract
Today, chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a symptomatic disease diagnosed by nasal endoscopy and eventually computed tomography scan, and is treated by pharmacotherapy or, when unsuccessful, by sinus surgery. With the advent of biologics, the diagnostic approach needs to be adjusted to appreciate CRS endotypes, introducing biomarkers, and the therapeutic options will be extended by the application of biologics. Specifically, type 2 immune reactions moved into the focus, similar to asthma, involving innate and adaptive immunity pathways to establish an often severe, persistent disease. The role for endotyping of CRS became evident for biologics, but also turned out to be meaningful for the decision on the selection of pharmacotherapy and the specific surgical approach to choose. Furthermore, considerations on the role of surgery and biologics needed to be elaborated to develop decision-making processes for patients with moderate-to-severe CRS with nasal polyps, with or without comorbid asthma, allowing us to adjust the treatment for patient groups based on endotyping (precision medicine). We here aim to guide the decisions in a rational way based on the current knowledge of the efficacy and complications or side effects of the recently enlarged therapeutic options. Personal experience has been added where knowledge was lacking in this fast moving field.

Abstract
Novel therapies such as type 2 targeting biologics are emerging treatment options for patients with chronic inflammatory respiratory diseases, fulfilling the needs of severely uncontrolled patients. The majority of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and over half of patients with asthma show a type 2 inflammatory signature in sinonasal mucosa and/or lungs. Importantly, both chronic respiratory diseases are frequent comorbidities, ensuring alleviation of both upper and lower airway pathology by systemic biological therapy. Type 2-targeting biologics such as anti-IgE, anti-IL4Rα, anti-IL5, and anti-IL5Rα have entered the market for selected pheno/endotypes of asthma patients and may soon also become available for CRSwNP patients. Given the high prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases and the high cost associated with biologics, patient selection is crucial in order to implement such therapies into chronic respiratory disease care pathways. The European Forum for Research and Education in Allergy and Airway Diseases (EUFOREA) organized a multidisciplinary Expert Board Meeting to discuss the positioning of biologics into the care pathways for CRSwNP patients with and without comorbid asthma.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses and nasal passage. It is characterized as inflammation of the sinonasal passage, presenting with two or more symptoms (nasal blockage, secretions, facial pain and headaches) for more than 12 weeks consecutively. The disease is phenotypically differentiated based on the presence of nasal polyps; CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). Traditionally, CRSwNP has been associated with a type 2 inflammatory profile, while CRSsNP has been associated with a type 1 inflammatory profile. Extensive work in characterizing the inflammatory profiles of CRS patients has challenged this dichotomy, with great variation both between and within populations described. Recent efforts of endotyping CRS based on underlying pathophysiology have further highlighted the heterogeneity of the disease, revealing mixed inflammatory profiles coordinated by a number of inflammatory cell types. This review will highlight the current understanding of inflammation in CRS, and discuss the importance and impact of refining this understanding in the development of appropriate treatment options for CRS sufferers.

Abstract
Chronis rhinosinusitis is considered as a widespread public health issue with a prevalence of 10%. The disease significantly reduces quality of life and increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases as well as certain forms of cancer. Alteration of mucociliary clearance frequently observed in the patients and plays a significant role in disease pathogenesis. Certain studies have demonstrated that patients with chronic rhinosinusitis are characterized by significant reduction of essential trace elements and toxic metal overload. However, the particular mechanisms of the role of trace element dysbalance in chronic rhinosinusitis are unclear. We hypothesize that exposure to toxic trace elements (arsenic, nickel, cadmium) damages ciliary mucosal epithelium thus affecting mucociliary transport. In turn, altered mucociliary transport results in reduced removal of the inhaled metal-containing particles from nasal mucosa leading to their absorption and further aggravation of toxicity. Essential trace elements (zinc, selenium) play a significant role in regulation of mucociliary transport and immunity, thus their deficiency (either dietary or due to antagonism with toxic metals) may be associated with impaired functions and increased toxic metal toxicity. Therefore, a vicious circle involving metal accumulation and toxicity, essential element deficiency, impairment of mucociliary transport and metal particle removal, resulting in further accumulation of metals and aggravation of toxic effects is formed. The present hypothesis is supported by the findings on the impact of trace elements especially zinc and arsenic on mucociliary clearance, the role of mucociliary transport in heavy metal particles elimination from the airways, trace element dysbalance in chronic rhinosinusitis, as well as toxic and essential metal antagonism. The data from hypothesis testing and its verification may be used for development of therapeutic approach for management of chronic rhinosinusitis. Particularly, the use of essential elements (zinc, selenium) may reduce toxic metal toxicity thus destroying the vicious circle of heavy metal exposure, toxicity, alteration of mucociliary clearance, and aggravation of chronic rhinosinusitis. Essential element supplementation may be considered as a tool for management of chronic refractory rhinosinusitis. In addition, analysis of essential and toxic trace element status may provide an additional diagnostic approach to risk assessment of chronic rhinosinusitis in highly polluted environments.

Abstract
A rapidly developing paradigm for modern health care is a proactive and individualized response to patients' symptoms, combining precision diagnosis and personalized treatment. Precision medicine is becoming an overarching medical discipline that will require a better understanding of biomarkers, phenotypes, endotypes, genotypes, regiotypes, and theratypes of diseases. The 100-year-old personalized allergen-specific management of allergic diseases has particularly contributed to early awareness in precision medicine. Polyomics, big data, and systems biology have demonstrated a profound complexity and dynamic variability in allergic disease between individuals, as well as between regions. Escalating health care costs together with questionable efficacy of the current management of allergic diseases facilitated the emergence of the endotype-driven approach. We describe here a precision medicine approach that stratifies patients based on disease mechanisms to optimize management of allergic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ribosomal protein S3 (RPS3) is a 40S ribosomal protein of the S3P family essential for implementing protein translation. RPS3 has recently been found to interact with the p65 subunit of the NF-κB complex and promote p65 DNA-binding activity. Persistent activation of the NF-κB pathway is evident in allergic asthma. We hypothesized that gene silencing of lung RPS3 can ameliorate allergic airway inflammation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The gene silencing efficacy of RPS3 siRNA was screened in three different mouse cell lines by real-time PCR and immunoblotting. Protective effects of intratracheal RPS3 siRNA in a house dust mite (HDM) mouse asthma model were determined by measuring cell counts in lung lavage fluid and lung sections, lung cytokine profiles and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). KEY RESULTS RPS3 siRNA markedly knocked down RPS3 levels in all mouse cell lines tested, and in mouse lung tissues, blocked TNF-α- or HDM-induced release of mediators by the cultured cells and reduced eosinophil counts in lung lavage fluid from the HDM mouse asthma model. RPS3 siRNA lessened HDM-induced airway mucus hypersecretion, cytokine production and serum IgE elevation. Moreover, RPS3 knockdown significantly suppressed methacholine-induced AHR in experimental asthma. RPS3 siRNA disrupted TNF-α-induced NF-κB activation in a NF-κB reporter gene assay in vitro and prevented the nuclear accumulation of p65 subunit and p65 transcriptional activation in HDM-challenged lungs and cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS RPS3 gene silencing ameliorates experimental asthma, probably by disrupting NF-κB activity. RPS3 could be a novel therapeutic target for allergic airway inflammation.
