Utilizing radiomics for differential diagnosis of inverted papilloma and chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps based on unenhanced CT scans. Sci Rep 2024; 14:19299. [PMID: 39164351 PMCID: PMC11336076 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-70134-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/13/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024] Open
Abstract
To evaluate whether radiomics models based on unenhanced paranasal sinuses CT images could be a useful tool for differentiating inverted papilloma (IP) from chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps (CRSwNP). This retrospective study recruited 240 patients with CRSwNP and 106 patients with IP from three centers. 253 patients from Qilu Hospital were randomly divided into the training set (n = 151) and the internal validation set (n = 102) with a ratio of 6:4. 93 patients from the other two centers were used as the external validation set. The patients with the unilateral disease (n = 115) from Qilu Hospital were selected to further develop a subgroup analysis. Lesion segmentation was manually delineated in CT images. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm was performed for feature reduction and selection. Decision tree, support vector machine, random forest, and adaptive boosting regressor were employed to establish the differential diagnosis models. 43 radiomic features were selected for modeling. Among the models, RF achieved the best results, with an AUC of 0.998, 0.943, and 0.934 in the training set, the internal validation set, and the external validation set, respectively. In the subgroup analysis, RF achieved an AUC of 0.999 in the training set and 0.963 in the internal validation set. The proposed radiomics models offered a non-invasion and accurate differential approach between IP and CRSwNP and has some significance in guiding clinicians determining the best treatment plans, as well as predicting the prognosis.

Abstract
Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in human blood, play a fundamental role in host defense against invading pathogens and tissue injury. Neutrophils carry potentially lethal weaponry to the affected site. Inadvertent and perpetual neutrophil activation could lead to nonresolving inflammation and tissue damage, a unifying mechanism of many common diseases. The prevailing view emphasizes the dichotomy of their function, host defense versus tissue damage. However, tissue injury may also persist during neutropenia, which is associated with disease severity and poor outcome. Numerous studies highlight neutrophil phenotypic heterogeneity and functional versatility, indicating that neutrophils play more complex roles than previously thought. Emerging evidence indicates that neutrophils actively orchestrate resolution of inflammation and tissue repair and facilitate return to homeostasis. Thus, neutrophils mobilize multiple mechanisms to limit the inflammatory reaction, assure debris removal, matrix remodeling, cytokine scavenging, macrophage reprogramming, and angiogenesis. In this review, we will summarize the homeostatic and tissue-reparative functions and mechanisms of neutrophils across organs. We will also discuss how the healing power of neutrophils might be harnessed to develop novel resolution and repair-promoting therapies while maintaining their defense functions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As a critical component of the epithelial barrier, tight junctions (TJs) are essential in nasal mucosa against pathogen invasion. However, the function of TJs has rarely been reported in nasal inverted papilloma (NIP). This study aims to investigate the potential factors of TJs' abnormality in NIP. METHODS We assessed the expression of ZO-1, occludin, claudin-1, claudin-3, and claudin-7 in healthy controls and NIP by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescent staining. The correlation between TJs expression and neutrophil count, TH 1/TH 2/TH 17 and regulatory T cell biomarkers, and the proportion of nasal epithelial cells was investigated. RESULTS Upregulation of ZO-1, occludin, claudin-1, and claudin-7, along with downregulation of claudin-3, was found in NIP compared to control (all p < 0.05). An abnormal proportion with a lower number of ciliated cells (control vs. NIP: 37.60 vs. 8.67) and goblet cells (12.52 vs. 0.33) together with a higher number of basal cells (45.58 vs. 124.00) in NIP. Meanwhile, claudin-3 was positively correlated with ciliated and goblet cells (all p < 0.01). Additionally, neutrophils were excessively infiltrated in NIP, negatively correlated with ZO-1, but positively with claudin-3 (all p < 0.05). Furthermore, FOXP3, IL-10, TGF-β1, IL-5, IL-13, and IL-22 levels were induced in NIP (all p < 0.01). Occludin level was negatively correlated with IL-10, IL-5, IL-13, and IL-22, whereas ZO-1 was positively with TGF-β1 (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Nasal epithelial barrier dysfunction with TJs anomalies is commonly associated with abnormal proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells and imbalance of immune and inflammatory patterns in NIP.

Abstract
Neutrophils have emerged as important players in the tumor microenvironment, largely attributed to their plasticity and heterogeneity. Evidence accumulated thus far indicates that neutrophils signaled by external cues can promote tumor progression via several mechanisms. Hence, in our quest to target tumor-associated neutrophils to improve treatment, understanding the mechanisms by which tumor-derived factors regulate neutrophils to gain pro-tumor functions and the feedback loop by which these neutrophils promote tumor progression is very crucial. Herein, we review the published data on how tumor-derived factors alter neutrophils phenotype to promote tumor progression with particular emphasis on immunosuppression, autophagy, angiogenesis, tumor proliferation, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance. These deeper insights could provide a wider view and novel therapeutic approach to neutrophil-targeted therapy in cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) in the tumor microenvironment are prognostic biomarkers in many malignancies. However, it is unclear whether TANs can serve as a prognostic marker for clinical outcomes in patients with glioblastoma (GBM), as classified according to World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System, fifth edition (CNS5). In the present study, we analyzed correlations of TANs and peripheral blood neutrophils prior to radiotherapy with overall survival (OS) in GBM (CNS5). METHODS RNA-seq expression profiles of patients with newly diagnosed GBM (CNS5) were extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and The Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA). TAN infiltration was inferred using CIBERSORTx algorithm. Neutrophil counts prior to radiotherapy in newly diagnosed GBM (CNS5) were obtained from the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. The prognostic value of TANs and peripheral blood neutrophils before radiotherapy was investigated using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards models. The robustness of these findings was evaluated by sensitivity analysis, and E values were calculated. RESULTS A total of 146 and 173 individuals with GBM (CNS5) were identified from the TCGA and CGGA cohorts, respectively. High infiltration of TANs was of prognostic of poor OS in TCGA (HR = 1.621, 95% CI: 1.004-2.619) and CGGA (HR = 1.546, 95% CI: 1.029-2.323). Levels of peripheral blood neutrophils before radiotherapy (HR = 2.073, 95% CI: 1.077-3.990) were independently associated with poor prognosis. Sensitivity analysis determined that the E-value of high TANs infiltration was 2.140 and 2.465 in the TCGA and CGGA cohorts. CONCLUSIONS TANs and peripheral blood neutrophil levels before radiotherapy are prognostic of poor outcomes in GBM (CNS5).

Abstract
Our goal was to explore the bioactive constituents of Longsheyangquan (LSYQ) Decoction and elucidate its mechanisms on the treatment of bladder cancer (BCa). A total of 38 compounds were selected based on their pharmacokinetic properties in three large traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) databases. 654 putative targets of LSYQ Decoction were predicted using a structure-based, reverse-docking algorithm online, of which 343 overlapped with BCa-related protein-coding genes. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to perform module analysis for further Gene Ontology (GO) annotations and Kyoto Encyclopedia Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis, which identified CDK2, EGFR, MMP9 and PTGS2 as hub targets. The TCM-compound-target network and compound-target-pathway network together revealed that quercetin, diosmetin, enhydrin and luteolin were the main components of LSYQ Decoction. Finally, molecular docking showed the affinity between the key compounds and the hub target proteins to verify the accuracy of drug target prediction in the first place. The present study deciphered the core components and targets of LSYQ Decoction on the treatment of BCa in a comprehensive systemic pharmacological manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) is a rare and benign epithelial tumor in the sinonasal tract. Recent study suggested the potential role of chronic inflammation in the pathogenesis of IP. This study aims to compare the inflammatory pattern, the capacity of epithelial cell proliferation and EGFR mutation status of unilateral IP with contralateral polyp tissue. METHODS Sixteen patients with unilateral IP and contralateral nasal polyps (NP) were identified through a retrospective chart review. The neutrophil and eosinophil infiltration in IP and NP were assessed by immunostaining for neutrophil elastase and major basic protein (MBP). Immunohistochemistry was also used to assess the expression of FoxM1, Ki67 and cyclin D1 in IP tissue and contralateral NP. Sanger sequencing was used to evaluate the EGFR mutations. RESULTS The neutrophil count in IP was significantly higher than contralateral NP and 68.8% patients presented with neutrophilic inflammation, whereas only 37.5% contralateral NP tissue showed neutrophilic inflammation. The percentage of positive FoxM1-staining cells was significantly increased in IP, and positively correlated with the percentage of cells with positive staining for cyclin D1 and ki67 as well as neutrophil counts. EGFR exon 20 insertions were detected in 14 (87.5%) IP samples and no EGFR mutations were found in contralateral NP sample. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated distinct inflammatory pattern between IP and contralateral NP and implied the oncogenic role of neutrophils in the pathogenesis of IP. EGFR mutations may be the early event to initiate IP development by enhancing epithelial cell proliferation.

Abstract
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from already existing vasculature, is tightly regulated by pro- and anti-angiogenic stimuli and occurs under both physiological and pathological conditions. Tumor angiogenesis is central for tumor development, and an “angiogenic switch” could be initiated by multiple immune cells, such as neutrophils. Tumor-associated neutrophils promote tumor angiogenesis by the release of both conventional and non-conventional pro-angiogenic factors. Therefore, neutrophil-mediated tumor angiogenesis should be taken into consideration in the design of novel anti-cancer therapy. This review recapitulates the complex role of neutrophils in tumor angiogenesis and summarizes neutrophil-derived pro-angiogenic factors and mechanisms regulating angiogenic activity of tumor-associated neutrophils. Moreover, it provides up-to-date information about neutrophil-targeting therapy, complementary to anti-angiogenic treatment.
