Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to determine indices to diagnose and predict eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) during the initial clinic visit. Patients and Methods We retrospectively analyzed 116 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery and were classified according to the postoperative pathological diagnosis. General data and various clinical indicators were analyzed, and indicators with statistically significant differences between groups were further incorporated into a multivariate logistic regression to establish a comprehensive prediction model. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the two significant valuable single factors from previous studies, the difference in CT scores between the ethmoid sinus and the sum difference of the maxillary sinus (EM difference) and the absolute value of peripheral blood eosinophil (bEOS), with a comprehensive prediction model. Results There were significant differences in history of allergic asthma (p < 0.001), visual analog scale (VAS) score (p=0.005), sino-nasal outcome test-22(SNOT-22) scale score (p=0.004), Lund-Mackay scale score (p=0.017), EM difference (p=0.002), percentage of bEOS (%)(p=0.001), and absolute value of bEOS (×109/L) (p=0.000) between the two groups (p< 0.05). The history of allergic disease, VAS and bEOS were screened out and included in the comprehensive prediction model. The area under the curve (AUC) of the comprehensive prediction model (0.804)> the AUC of the absolute value of the bEOS (0.764)>the AUC of the EM difference (0.655). The AUC of the EM difference and the comprehensive prediction model were statistically different (P=0.025). There was no statistical difference between the absolute value of bEOS and the AUC of the comprehensive prediction model. Conclusion The comprehensive prediction model covering the three aspects of allergic asthma history, VAS score, and bEOS count had the highest AUC compared to the other predictors and had good predictive power for the diagnosis of ECRS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Eotaxin-2 and -3 of the C-C chemokine subfamily function as potent chemoattractant factors for eosinophil recruitment and various immune responses in allergic and inflammatory airway diseases. Mucin 5AC (MUC5AC), a major gel-forming secretory mucin, is overexpressed in airway inflammation. However, the association between mucin secretion and eotaxin-2/3 expression in the upper and lower airway epithelial cells has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of eotaxin-2/3 on MUC5AC expression and its potential signaling mediators. METHODS We analyzed the effects of eotaxin-2 and -3 on NCI-H292 human airway epithelial cells and primary human nasal epithelial cells (HNEpCs) via reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and western blotting. Along with immunoblot analyses with specific inhibitors and small interfering RNA (siRNA), we explored the signaling pathway involved in MUC5AC expression following eotaxin-2/3 treatment. RESULTS In HCI-H292 cells, eotaxin-2/3 activated the mRNA expression and protein production of MUC5AC. A specific inhibitor of C-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3), SB328437, suppressed eotaxin-2/3-induced MUC5AC expression at both the mRNA and protein levels. Eotaxin-2/3 induced the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-1/2 and p38, whereas pretreatment with a CCR3 inhibitor significantly attenuated this effect. Induction of MUC5AC expression with eotaxin-2/3 was decreased by U0126 and SB203580, specific inhibitors of ERK1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), respectively. In addition, cell transfection with ERK1/2 and p38 siRNAs inhibited eotaxin-2/3-induced MUC5AC expression. Moreover, specific inhibitors (SB328437, U0126, and SB203580) attenuated eotaxin-2/3-induced MUC5AC expression in HNEpCs. CONCLUSION Our results imply that CCR3-mediated ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK are involved in the signal transduction of eotaxin-2/3-induced MUC5AC overexpression.

Effect of Systemic Prednisone Treatment on Changes of Inflammation Markers in Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13071354. [PMID: 37046572 PMCID: PMC10093034 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13071354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Objective: We aimed to evaluate the effect of treatment with prednisone on nasal and systemic periostin and eotaxin expression, IgE in plasma and eosinophils in tissue. (2) Methods: We compared the values of nasal and systemic periostin, eotaxin, IgE and eosinophils in tissue in patients treated with only nasal steroids before FESS, group 1, with those treated with an oral steroid–prednisone, group 2. (3) Results: A statistically significant decrease in the level of periostin, eotaxin and IgE in plasma was achieved in patients treated with prednisone one week before and after surgery (in sequence: p < 0.0476, p < 0.0006, p < 0.0031). In patients treated with steroids, we also observed a lower level of periostin in the epithelium (p < 0.044), eotaxin in the stroma (p limit value < 0.075) and eosinophils (p < 0.031) in the tissues collected during the operation. (4) Conclusions: Systemic steroid treatment with prednisone distinctly decreases periostin, eotaxin and IgE expression in plasma. We also observed a lower level of periostin in the epithelium, eotaxin in the stroma and eosinophils in the tissues. We need more attempts to find inflammatory markers associated with chronic rhinosinusitis. Identifying drugs that decrease inflammatory parameters would allow for more targeted therapy.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) refers to an inflammatory disease of the sinonasal mucosa, with a significant economic burden and impact on quality of life. The diagnosis of CRS is conventionally made on careful history and physical examination, including nasoendoscopic assessment which requires technical expertise. There has been increasing interest in using biomarkers in the non-invasive diagnosis and prognostication of CRS, tailored to the disease inflammatory endotype. Potential biomarkers currently being studied can be isolated from peripheral blood, exhaled nasal gases or nasal secretions, as well as sinonasal tissue. In particular, various biomarkers have revolutionized the way in which CRS is managed, revealing new inflammatory pathways where novel therapeutic drugs are employed to curb the inflammatory process, which may be different from one patient to the next. Biomarkers that have been extensively studied in CRS, such as eosinophil count, IgE, and IL-5, have been associated with a TH2 inflammatory endotype which correlates with an eosinophilic CRSwNP phenotype that predicts a poorer prognosis, tends to recur after conventional surgical treatment, but responds to glucocorticoid treatment. Newer biomarkers that demonstrate potential, such as nasal nitric oxide, can support a diagnosis of CRS with or without nasal polyps, especially when invasive tests such as nasoendoscopy are unavailable. Other biomarkers such as periostin can be used to monitor disease course after treatment of CRS. With a personalized treatment plan, the management of CRS can be individualized, optimizing treatment efficiency and reducing adverse outcomes. As such, this review aims to compile and summarize the existing literature regarding the utility of biomarkers in CRS in terms of diagnosis and prognostication, and also makes recommendations for further studies to fill current knowledge gaps.

Bioinformatics analysis and verification of key candidate genes influencing the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Am J Transl Res 2023; 15:710-728.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a prominent public health issue. Furthermore, the prognosis of eosinophilic CRSwNP is poor, with a high recurrence rate. The underlying molecular mechanisms of eosinophilic CRSwNP remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we sought to determine the crucial genes underlying eosinophil infiltration in eosinophilic CRSwNP pathogenesis. METHODS We used the Gene Expression Omnibus database (GEO) (GSE36830 and GSE23552 datasets) to mine gene expression profiles of CRSwNP patients and normal subjects. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between normal and CRSwNP tissues were identified and subjected to the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analyses. Co-expression networks were established using a weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Protein-protein interaction networks were developed to detect functional protein modules. Based on the common DEGs, candidate miRNAs and related lncRNAs were predicted using the mirTarBase and StarBase databases. Finally, we generated immune cell subtypes of CRSwNP. RESULTS A total of 146 DEGs were identified. Of these, 131 genes were upregulated, whereas 15 were downregulated. GO analysis indicated that DEGs primarily participated in leukocyte chemotaxis and migration as well as cell chemotaxis. KEGG pathway analysis suggested that DEGs participated in the interactions between cytokines and viral proteins, osteoclast differentiation, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that Complement C5a Receptor 1 (C5AR1), C-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 3 (CCR3), Complement C3a Receptor 1 (C3AR1), and C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 13 (CCL13) expression levels were significantly upregulated in nasal polyps, whereas C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 4 (CCL4) expression levels were significantly downregulated. CONCLUSIONS The candidate genes identified in this study may influence the activation and accumulation of eosinophils, cell chemotaxis, and inflammatory responses, thereby potentially representing molecular targets for future studies of CRSwNP.

Abstract
Acute liver failure caused by drug overdose is a significant clinical problem in developed countries. Acetaminophen (APAP), a widely used analgesic and antipyretic drug, but its overdose can cause acute liver failure. In addition to APAP-induced direct hepatotoxicity, the intracellular signaling mechanisms of APAP-induced liver injury (AILI) including metabolic activation, mitochondrial oxidant stress and proinflammatory response further affect progression and severity of AILI. Liver inflammation is a result of multiple interactions of cell death molecules, immune cell-derived cytokines and chemokines, as well as damaged cell-released signals which orchestrate hepatic immune cell infiltration. The immunoregulatory interplay of these inflammatory mediators and switching of immune responses during AILI lead to different fate of liver pathology. Thus, better understanding the complex interplay of immune cell subsets in experimental models and defining their functional involvement in disease progression are essential to identify novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of AILI. Here, this present review aims to systematically elaborate on the underlying immunological mechanisms of AILI, its relevance to immune cells and their effector molecules, and briefly discuss great therapeutic potential based on inflammatory mediators.

Int Forum Allergy Rhinol 2022; 12:1413-1423. [PMID: 35243803 PMCID: PMC9790271 DOI: 10.1002/alr.22994] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 02/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is generally associated with eosinophilic tissue infiltration linked to type 2 inflammation and characterized by elevated levels of interleukin (IL)-5 and other type 2 inflammatory mediators. Although distinct and overlapping contributions of eosinophils and IL-5 to CRSwNP pathology are still being explored, they are both known to play an important role in NP inflammation. Eosinophils secrete numerous type 2 inflammatory mediators including granule proteins, enzymes, cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, lipids, and oxidative products. IL-5 is critical for the differentiation, migration, activation, and survival of eosinophils but is also implicated in the biological functions of mast cells, basophils, innate lymphoid cells, B cells, and epithelial cells. Results from clinical trials of therapeutics that target type 2 inflammatory mediators (including but not limited to anti-IL-5, anti-immunoglobulin-E, and anti-IL-4/13) may provide further evidence of how eosinophils and IL-5 contribute to CRSwNP. Finally, the association between eosinophilia/elevated IL-5 and greater rates of NP recurrence after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) suggests that these mediators may have utility as biomarkers of NP recurrence in diagnosing and assessing the severity of CRSwNP. This review provides an overview of eosinophil and IL-5 biology and explores the literature regarding the role of these mediators in CRSwNP pathogenesis and NP recurrence following ESS. Based on current published evidence, we suggest that although eosinophils play a key role in CRSwNP pathophysiology, IL-5, a cytokine that activates these cells, also represents a pertinent and effective treatment target in patients with CRSwNP.

Exploration of Predictive Biomarkers for Postoperative Recurrence in Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps Based on Serum Multiple-Cytokine Profiling. Mediators Inflamm 2022; 2022:1061658.

Abstract
Background Functional nasal endoscopic surgery (FESS) is an effective treatment approach for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) patients, but some patients still suffer from postoperative recurrence. This study is aimed at investigating the expression of multiple cytokines in CRSwNP and revealing their relationships with postoperative recurrence. Methods A total of 72 patients with CRSwNP, including 36 primary and 36 recurrent patients, were enrolled. Serum samples were obtained, 30 cytokine levels were measured by multiplex analysis, and the association between cytokine levels and recurrence was assessed. The most potential cytokines were further validated in another independent cohort with 60 primary and 60 recurrent CRSwNP patients. Results The results of multiple cytokine profiling exhibited that the levels of eotaxin, G-CSF, IFN-α, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-5, MCP-1, and RANTES were vastly changed in the recurrent group in comparison with the primary group. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves highlighted that serum levels of eotaxin, IL-17A, and RANTES were strongly predictive of postoperative recurrence (area under the curve (AUC) > 0.7, P < 0.05). Further validation results showed that elevated serum eotaxin, IL-17A, and RANTES levels were enhanced in the recurrent group. The ROC curve showed that serum eotaxin (AUC = 0.729, P < 0.001) and RANTES (AUC = 0.776, P < 0.001) exhibited stronger ability than serum IL-17A (AUC = 0.617, P = 0.027) in predicting CRSwNP recurrence. Conclusion Our data suggested that serum multiple cytokine profiling was associated with postoperative recurrence of CRSwNP, and eotaxin and RANTES might serve as potential biomarkers for predicting postoperative recurrence. These results might contribute to the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of recurrence and provide novel clues for precision therapy in CRSwNP.

Abstract
Biomarkers of otorhinolaryngologic diseases with higher insult over a
person’s him/herself and overall health services are summarized in brief. In order to
define, diagnose, treat and monitor any disease markers are needed.
Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) is interested in special disease entities of the region
besides otorhinolaryngologic involvements of the systemic diseases and unique forms
of pathologies such as cholesteatoma, Meniere’s disease and otosclerosis. Neoplasia is
another heading to deal with. In the following chapter, one will find an overview of
molecules that have been used as a biomarker as well as the end points of the present
research on the issue relevant with ORL. Day by day, new molecules are being named
however, the pathways of action are rather the same. Readers will find the headings
related to the most common diseases of the field, informing them about where to look
for defining new strategies of understanding of each disease.

Abstract
The complex pathophysiology of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) generates a spectrum of phenotypes with a wide variety of inflammatory states. We enrolled 44 very-likely-to-be type 2 CRSwNP patients in order to evaluate the load of inflammation and to analyze human interleukins in nasal secretion. Clinical data were collected to evaluate the severity of the disease. High levels of IL-5, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-33 were detected in all type 2 CRSwNP patients. By analyzing type 2 cytokine profiles and local eosinophil count, we identified two coherent clusters: the first was characterized by high levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and a high-grade eosinophil count (type 2-high); the second had lower levels of cytokines and poor or absent eosinophilic inflammation (type-2 low). IL-5 levels were significantly higher within the type 2 cytokine and it was the most reliable biomarker for differentiating the two clusters. In type 2-high inflammatory profile clinical scores, the mean number of previous surgeries and need for systemic corticosteroids were significantly higher compared to type 2-low. Our research demonstrated the potential role of type 2 biomarkers, and in particular, of IL-5 in identifying patients with a more severe phenotype based on a high inflammatory load.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis is a heterogenous disease with complex underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms. Biologics have been proven to be an effective add-on therapeutic option in severe and/or refractory cases. Currently, dupilumab, omalizumab and mepolizumab have phase III data to support their use in these patients and have received approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration specifically for the treatment of nasal polyposis. Each of these biologics has shown its ability to reduce nasal polyp size and improve nasal congestion/obstruction and sense of smell, but additional research is needed to directly compare the efficacy and safety of the different biologic agents for different nasal polyposis endotypes.

Abstract
Tactical aviation imposes unprecedented physical challenges including repetitive exposure to hypergravity, hyperoxia, increased work of breathing, and profound cognitive workloads. Each stressor evokes outcomes ranging from musculoskeletal duress and atelectasis to physical and cognitive fatigue, the latter among the foremost threats to aviators. Whereas sleep loss is traditionally considered the primary cause of fatigue in aviators, converging experimental, observational, and medical studies have identified biochemical mechanisms promoting onset of fatigue. Those mechanisms, which fundamentally differ from sleep loss, revolve around increased proinflammatory cytokines, produced and released in response to tissue injury, chronic inflammatory disorders, allergens, or physical duress. This study’s objective was to inform our understanding of potential relationships between serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines and onset of fatigue within a cohort of aviators who experience multiple high-performance sorties on a daily basis. Methods: Active duty and reservist T-6A Texan II instructor pilots were studied on three separate days across their week-long flying schedule. Data collected included a physical assessment, subjective fatigue levels, venous blood samples for measures of chemistry and serum analytes, and urine samples for specific gravity. Results: Twenty-three persons were studied, of which 22 fulfilled minimum study requirements of completing two sorties. The study cohort was comprised of primarily males, age 37.95 ± 4.73 years with a BMI of 26.63 ± 3.15 kg/m2. Of 37 measurable serum analytes, 20 differed significantly (p < 0.05) between baseline values with those measured at the study endpoint. Thirteen of the aviators reported increased fatigue scores across their flying schedule whereas nine did not. Eleven blood serum analytes were associated with increasing levels of fatigue. Discussion: Fatigue in aviators has been attributed almost solely to sleep loss, nocturnal sorties, or disrupted circadian rhythmicity. In contrast, our study findings suggest an alternative mechanism that can promote onset of fatigue: increased blood levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Specific mechanisms triggering synthesis and release of those cytokines and other analytes are yet to be determined. However, their expression patterns suggest responses to both chronic and acute inflammation, hyperoxia, or bronchopulmonary responses to inspiration of dry gas, positive airway pressure, or perhaps atelectasis.

Identification of Robust Biomarkers for Early Predicting Efficacy of Subcutaneous Immunotherapy in Children With House Dust Mite-Induced Allergic Rhinitis by Multiple Cytokine Profiling. Front Immunol 2022; 12:805404. [PMID: 35095890 PMCID: PMC8789884 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.805404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) is an effective treatment for children with allergic rhinitis (AR), but its efficacy fluctuates among patients. There are no reliable candidate biomarkers for monitoring and predicting the response to SCIT. The present study aims to identify novel biomarkers for early predicting the efficacy of SCIT in pediatric AR patients based on multiple cytokine profiling. Methods We prospectively recruited 72 children with house dust mite (HDM)-induced AR who were assigned to receive SCIT. The serum samples were collected and multiple cytokine profiling was conducted by Luminex assay at baseline. All patients were followed-up for 1 year and then categorized into effective and ineffective group based on their efficacy, and levels of 48 selected cytokines were tested and compared between the two groups. The potential cytokines were further validated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in a cohort with 54 responders and 26 non-responders. Results Sixty-nine of 72 children completed one-year follow-up schedule with 46 included in effective group and 23 in ineffective group. The results of multiple cytokine profiling showed that 15 cytokines (eotaxin, G-CSF, GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-12(p40), IL-13, IL-15, IL-16, IL-4, MIF, MIP-1α, RANTES, SCF, SDF-1α and VEGF) were dysregulated between effective and ineffective group (all P < 0.05). Unadjusted and adjusted multivariate analysis models highlighted that serum eotaxin, IFN-γ, IL-4 and MIF levels closely associated with the efficacy of SCIT in pediatric HDM-induced AR patients. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves revealed potential values of these four biomarkers in predicting the response to SCIT. Further ELISA validation results in the cohort of 80 pediatric patients demonstrated that serum eotaxin and IL-4 levels were elevated in responders while IFN-γ levels decreased in responders (all P < 0.05). ROC curves demonstrated that serum IL-4 exhibited more reliable accuracy in predicting SCIT efficacy than eotaxin and IFN-γ. Conclusion Our discover–validation study suggested that cytokines including IL-4, eotaxin and IFN- γ may serve as robust biomarkers for early predicting response of SCIT in children with HDM-induced AR. These results strengthen the evidence that cytokines were associated with the response of SCIT and contributed to understand its underlying therapeutic mechanisms.

Elevated Serum Leptin Levels in Patients With Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Front Pharmacol 2022; 12:793607.

Abstract
Background: Eosinophilic chronic sinusitis (ECRS) is a subtype of CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) that is frequently comorbid with asthma. Notably, ECRS patients often show a high recurrence of NPs after surgical resection. Leptin is a hormone produced by adipocytes that has been implicated in airway inflammatory diseases. However, to date, the role of leptin in ECRS has not been investigated. Objective: To determine whether the serum levels of leptin are altered in patients with ECRS. Methods: In total, 40 patients with ECRS, 15 patients with non-eosinophilic CRS (non-ECRS), and 12 individuals without CRS (control) were included in this study. Patient's serum leptin levels were assessed, and the number of eosinophils in their NPs were measured through a histological evaluation of the three densest areas with cellular infiltrate beneath the epithelial surface. Finally, nasal fibroblast cultures established from NPs were stimulated with varying concentrations of recombinant leptin in vitro to determine whether leptin affects eotaxin-3 (Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 26 :26: CCL26) expression. Results: The serum leptin levels in both the ECRS and non-ECRS groups were significantly higher than those in the control subjects (p < 0.0001 vs. ECRS; p < 0.05 vs. non-ECRS). Furthermore, ECRS patients displayed significantly elevated serum leptin levels compared to non-ECRS patients (p < 0.001), although there was no difference in body mass index between the groups. Notably, serum leptin levels were correlated with the proportion of eosinophils in peripheral blood (r = 0.3575, p < 0.01) and the number of eosinophils in NPs (r = 0.5109, p < 0.0001). Serum leptin levels were also correlated with eotaxin-3 mRNA expression in NPs (r = 0.5374, p < 0.01). Finally, leptin significantly augmented eotaxin-3 expression in nasal fibroblasts established in vitro from NPs in a leptin receptor-dependent manner (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Leptin levels are elevated in ECRS patients and may both promote and indicate the severity of ECRS as well as systemic type 2-biased inflammatory responses. Combined, these data indicate that circulating leptin may play a significant role in the development of eosinophilic inflammation in NPs.

Abstract
Background Targeted approaches may not account for the complexity of inflammation involved in children with severe asthma (SA), highlighting the need to consider more global analyses. We aimed to identify sets of immune constituents that distinguish children with SA from disease-control subjects through a comprehensive analysis of cells and immune constituents measured in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and blood. Methods Twenty children with SA and 10 age-matched control subjects with chronic respiratory disorders other than asthma were included. Paired blood and BAL samples were collected and analyzed for a large set of cellular (eosinophils, neutrophils, and subsets of lymphocytes and innate lymphoid cells) and soluble (chemokines, cytokines, and total antibodies) immune constituents. First, correlations of all immune constituents between BAL and blood and with demographic and clinical data were assessed (Spearman correlations). Then, all data were modelled using supervised multivariate analyses (partial least squares discriminant analysis, PLS-DA) to identify immune constituents that significantly discriminate between SA and control subjects. Univariate analyses were performed (Mann-Whitney tests) and then PLS-DA and univariate analyses were combined to identify the most discriminative and significant constituents. Results Concentrations of soluble immune constituents poorly correlated between BAL and blood. Certain constituents correlated with age or body mass index and, in asthmatics, with clinical symptoms, such as the number of exacerbations in the previous year, asthma control test score, or forced expiratory volume. Multivariate supervised analysis allowed construction of a model capable of distinguishing children with SA from control subjects with 80% specificity and 100% sensitivity. All immune constituents contributed to the model but some, identified by variable-important-in-projection values > 1 and p < 0.1, contributed more strongly, including BAL Th1 and Th2 cells and eosinophilia, CCL26 (Eotaxin 3), IgA and IL-19 concentrations in blood. Blood concentrations of IL-26, CCL13, APRIL, and Pentraxin-3 may also help in the characterization of SA. Conclusions The analysis of a large set of immune constituents may allow the identification of a biological immune signature of SA. Such an approach may provide new leads for delineating the pathogenesis of SA in children and identifying new targets for its diagnosis, prediction, and personalized treatment.

Th2 inflammatory responses in the development of nasal polyps and chronic rhinosinusitis. Curr Opin Allergy Clin Immunol 2021; 20:1-8.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pathogenesis of nasal polyp has been largely studied based on innate and adaptive immunity of sinonasal mucosa. So far, various factors have been identified that trigger an inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps. In this review, we summarized recently updated information in the understanding of mechanisms in the development of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyp (CRSwNP) focusing on Th2 inflammation. RECENT FINDINGS Endotype of CRSwNP presented mainly Th2-skewed inflammation, and it has been associated with refractoriness and comorbidities. Staphylococcus aureus can drive Th2 inflammation by producing enterotoxins and serine protease-like protein. Moreover, S. aureus directly affected mucosal barrier function and enhanced Th2 cytokine production by fast induction of epithelial-derived innate cytokines. Epithelial-derived innate cytokines, including TSLP, IL-25, and IL-33, promote Th2 responses via the development of innate lymphoid cells. Mast cell expresses IL-5, IL-13, and periostin, and it plays a role in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps through orchestrating eosinophil infiltration. Formation of eosinophil extracellular traps and Charcot-Leyden crystals is strongly associated with disease severity and viscous mucus plug production. Therefore, it needs to be investigated mechanistically. The role of neutrophils in Th2 inflammation has been poorly understood but appears to enhance Th2 inflammation and make it more resistant to steroid therapy. SUMMARY There is growing evidence of the role of S. aureus in innate and adaptive immunity, which contribute to Th2 inflammation in CRSwNP. Innate immunity, including epithelial-derived cytokines, plays a crucial role in the development of CRSwNP by inducing various pathways and need to be investigated more as Th2-targeted biomarkers. Recently, the role of neutrophilic inflammation in Th2 inflammation has started to be studied but still remains unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Integrated care pathways improve the management of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). The application of integrated care pathways requires development of endotype-based biomarkers to stratify patients. The value of cytokines and markers induced by cytokines for the management of CRSwNP is largely unknown. OBJECTIVES Our aim was to determine the prognostic and pharmacologic value of type 2, non-type 2 cytokines, and markers associated with type 2 inflammation, including CCL26, periostin, and cystatin SN, in nasal secretions for CRSwNP. METHODS This retrospective study assigned 151 patients with CRSwNP to the discovery and validation phases. Concentrations of cytokines, CCL26, periostin, and cystatin SN in nasal secretions were determined by using Luminex and ELISA. Predictive significance was assessed with receiver-operating characteristic curves. Survival analysis was performed by using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression models. RESULTS Cystatin SN was an independent predictor of the uncontrolled status of CRSwNP over a 2-year follow-up after adjustment for other risk factors (hazard ratio = 1.168 and 1.132 in the discovery and validation phases, respectively; both P < .001). Patients with high cystatin SN concentrations presented with a faster onset and higher rate of uncontrolled status than did those with low levels (P < .001). Enhanced medical treatment for patients with high cystatin SN levels postponed the uncontrolled status in the discovery (P = .016) and validation (P = .002) phases but did not completely abolish it by the end of the follow-up. CONCLUSION Cystatin SN levels in nasal secretions hold strong prognostic value and can facilitate medical instructions for managing CRSwNP.

Abstract
AIM We aimed to discover whether group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and cytokines in nasal lavage fluid could be used to predict eosinophilic infiltration in mice with eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS). METHODS Ten mice were divided into two groups. The ECRS group received an intranasal challenge of Aspergillus oryzae protease (AP) and ovalbumin (OVA) to establish disease. A control group received intranasal phosphate-buffered saline. Histopathology of nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses, and cytokine and ILC2s levels in nasal lavage fluid were analyzed and compared between the ECRS and control mouse groups. KEY FINDINGS ILC2s numbers were not significantly higher in the nasal lavage fluid of the ECRS group mice compared with those of the control group. Eotaxin/chemokine (CC motif) ligand 11 (CCL11) levels were significantly higher in the nasal lavage fluid of mice in the ECRS group compared with those in the control group. However, no statistical differences were seen in the classic proinflammatory cytokines, IL-33, IL-25, and thymic stromal thymopoietin (TSLP), or the classic type 2 cytokines, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 between groups. SIGNIFICANCE Eotaxin/CCL11 levels in nasal lavage fluid rather than that of ILC2s and classic proinflammatory and type 2 cytokines were significantly higher in ECRS mice compared with control ones. Eotaxin/CCL11 showed diagnostic and therapeutic value; however, more studies are needed to test and verify its value.

Abstract
Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by different clinical features and treatment responsiveness. This study aimed to compare the serum metabolomics profiles between eosinophilic CRSwNP (eCRSwNP) and non-eosinophilic CRSwNP (neCRSwNP) and healthy controls (HC) and explore objective biomarkers for distinguishing eCRSwNP before surgery. Methods: Serum samples were collected from 33 neCRSwNP patients, 37 eCRSwNP patients, and 29 HC. Serum metabolomics profiles were investigated by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results: The analysis results revealed that neCRSwNP, eCRSwNP, and HC exhibited distinctive metabolite signatures. In addition, eCRSwNP could be distinguished from neCRSwNP referring to their serum metabolic profiles, and the top ten different metabolites were citrulline, choline, linoleic acid, adenosine, glycocholic acid, L-serine, triethanolamine, 4-guanidinobutyric acid, methylmalonic acid, and L-methionine, which were related to several most important pathways including arginine and proline metabolism; glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; linoleic acid metabolism; and purine metabolism. Among these distinctive metabolites, citrulline, linoleic acid, adenosine, and 4-guanidinobutyric acid showed good predictabilities, and the serum levels of citrulline, linoleic acid, and adenosine were significantly correlated with tissue eosinophil (T-EOS) percentage and T-EOS count. Conclusion: eCRSwNP patients exhibited discriminative serum metabolic signatures in comparison with neCRSwNP patients and HC. These results suggested that metabolomics profiles contributed to understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of CRSwNP and distinguishing its phenotypes.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) presents with two basic phenotypes, CRS with (CRSwNP) or without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). The present study’s objective was to evaluate the clinical characteristics in a Greek population of CRSwNP patients and their relation to the frequency of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells as well as the CD4+/CD8+ ratio as prognostic biomarkers. Thirty-three adult CRSwNP patients were recruited at the ENT Department of “G. Papanikolaou” General Hospital of Thessaloniki. Tissue samples from nasal polyps were collected during functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Hadley’s nasal endoscopy scores, preoperative Lund-Mackay CT scores, and 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test, were recorded for each patient. The presence of CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes was evaluated in tissue sections by immunohistochemistry. Blood eosinophil and neutrophil counts were also included in the analysis. All data were analyzed with SPSS (version 21.0). Twenty-one males and 12 females were included in the analysis with mean age of 49.5 ± 14.5. LMS ( P < 0.001, r = 0.961) and HES ( P = 0.001, r = 0.54) were both positively correlated with SNOT 22. Hadley’s endoscopic score was also positively correlated with Lund-Mackay CT score ( P < 0.001, r = 0.674). Absolute count and percentage of eosinophils were positively correlated with LMS ( P = 0.003, r = 0.513, P = 0.002, r = 0.527 respectively) and HES ( P < 0.001, r = 0.622, P = 0.004, r = 0.497 respectively). Ιn a subgroup analysis, CRSwNP patients with blood eosinophils >5%, LMS and SNOT 22 were negatively correlated to CD4+ cells ( P = 0.029 r = −0.654, P = 0.043, r = −0.618, respectively). In CRSwNP patients with CD4+/CD8+ ratio <0.3, CD8+ T cells were positively correlated with the absolute count and percentage of eosinophils ( P = 0.042, r = 0.684, P = 0.036, r = 0.699 respectively). In this study, we recognized the potential importance of nasal CD8+ T cells in the pathophysiology of CRSwNP patients, also characterized by eosinophil accumulation. Furthermore, the patients’ clinical characteristics were also positively correlated with the eosinophilic inflammation and the severity of the disease.

Abstract
Eosinophilic airway inflammation is one of the cardinal features of allergic airway diseases such as atopic asthma and allergic rhinitis. These childhood-onset conditions are mediated by allergen and allergen-specific IgE and often accompanied by other allergic diseases including food allergy and eczema. They can develop consecutively in the same patient, which is referred to as an allergic march. In contrast, some phenotypes of asthma, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs-exacerbated airway disease (N-ERD), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP)/eosinophilic CRS and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis/mycosis (ABPA/ABPM) are adult-onset airway diseases, which are characterized by prominent peripheral blood eosinophilia. Most of these conditions, except for ABPA/ABPM, are nonatopic, and the coexistence of multiple diseases, including an adult-onset eosinophilic systemic disease, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), is common. In this review, we focus on eosinophil biology, genetics and clinical characteristics and the pathophysiology of adult-onset eosinophilic asthma, N-ERD, CRSwNP/eosinophilic CRS, ABPA/ABPM and EGPA, while exploring the common genetic, immunological and pathological conditions among these adult-onset eosinophilic diseases.

Abstract
Objective
To clarify relevant proteins and clinical characteristics of a phenotype of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) with lymphadenopathy.
Methods
We enrolled patients newly diagnosed with IgG4-RD in our department between January 2000 and June 2018 and performed proteomic analysis to measure serum concentrations of 1305 proteins. We extracted proteins overexpressed in patients with IgG4-RD with lymphadenopathy by comparing between those with lymphadenopathy, those without lymphadenopathy and healthy controls. We further reviewed all the patients with IgG4-RD in our institution and investigated the characteristics and prognosis of the patients with IgG4-RD with lymphadenopathy.
Results
Eighty-five patients with IgG4-RD were enrolled, of which, 55% had lymphadenopathy. Proteomic analysis in 31 patients with IgG4-RD and 6 healthy controls revealed that eotaxin-3 was a potential serum biomarker in the patients with lymphadenopathy versus those without lymphadenopathy and healthy controls. A cohort of 85 patients with IgG4-RD demonstrated that patients with lymphadenopathy showed a significantly higher serum IgG4, IgG4:IgG ratio, IgG4-RD responder index and eosinophilia (P < 0.001 for all), irrelevant of the extent to which organ involvement developed. Patients with lymphadenopathy treated with glucocorticoid alone relapsed with significantly higher rates than those without lymphadenopathy (P = 0.03).
Conclusion
Lymphadenopathy in IgG4-RD represents a phenotype associated with high disease activities, eosinophilia and relapsing disease. Eotaxin-3 is a novel biomarker related to IgG4-RD with lymphadenopathy.

Abstract
There has been extensive progress in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of inflammation and immune regulation in allergic diseases of the skin and lungs during the last few years. Asthma and atopic dermatitis (AD) are typical diseases of type 2 immune responses. interleukin (IL)-25, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin are essential cytokines of epithelial cells that are activated by allergens, pollutants, viruses, bacteria, and toxins that derive type 2 responses. Th2 cells and innate lymphoid cells (ILC) produce and secrete type 2 cytokines such as IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, and IL-13. IL-4 and IL-13 activate B cells to class-switch to IgE and also play a role in T-cell and eosinophil migration to allergic inflammatory tissues. IL-13 contributes to maturation, activation, nitric oxide production and differentiation of epithelia, production of mucus as well as smooth muscle contraction, and extracellular matrix generation. IL-4 and IL-13 open tight junction barrier and cause barrier leakiness in the skin and lungs. IL-5 acts on activation, recruitment, and survival of eosinophils. IL-9 contributes to general allergic phenotype by enhancing all of the aspects, such as IgE and eosinophilia. Type 2 ILC contribute to inflammation in AD and asthma by enhancing the activity of Th2 cells, eosinophils, and their cytokines. Currently, five biologics are licensed to suppress type 2 inflammation via IgE, IL-5 and its receptor, and IL-4 receptor alpha. Some patients with severe atopic disease have little evidence of type 2 hyperactivity and do not respond to biologics which target this pathway. Studies in responder and nonresponder patients demonstrate the complexity of these diseases. In addition, primary immune deficiency diseases related to T-cell maturation, regulatory T-cell development, and T-cell signaling, such as Omenn syndrome, severe combined immune deficiencies, immunodysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked syndrome, and DOCK8, STAT3, and CARD11 deficiencies, help in our understanding of the importance and redundancy of various type 2 immune components. The present review aims to highlight recent advances in type 2 immunity and discuss the cellular sources, targets, and roles of type 2 mechanisms in asthma and AD.

Abstract
IL-5 is the most potent activator of eosinophils and is produced by Th2 cells and ILC2s. A role for IL-5 in eosinophil extracellular trap cell death, i.e., a proinflammatory cell death, has also been reported. Mepolizumab and benralizumab are humanized mAbs that target IL-5 and the IL-5 receptor α, respectively, and their therapeutic efficacy for severe asthma has been established. Although consistent differences in the efficacies of those drugs have not been proven, benralizumab extensively depleted eosinophils via Ab-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Blood eosinophil count, but not FeNO or IgE, is the best-established predictive biomarker of the efficacy of anti-IL-5 treatment. Regarding the choice of biologics, the balance between blood eosinophil count and FeNO, indication of comorbidities, longitudinal safety, and interval of injection should be considered. Mepolizumab was also effective in maintaining the remission of refractory eosinophilic granulomatous polyangiitis. Moreover, mepolizumab decreased the proportion of patients who required surgery and lowered the nasal polyp score in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps; a further extensive trial is currently under way. In a phase II benralizumab study performed in Japan, no significant effect on nasal polyp score at week 12 was observed, suggesting a requirement for longer treatment. In this review, the role of IL-5 in eosinophil biology and the current status of anti-IL-5 therapy are discussed. The longitudinal safety of anti-IL-5 therapy has been increasingly established, and this strategy will be continuously indicated for eosinophilic diseases as a specific treatment for eosinophilic inflammation.

Abstract
The human eosinophil has long been thought to favorably influence innate mucosal immunity but at times has also been incriminated in disease pathophysiology. Research into eosinophil biology has uncovered a number of interesting contributions by eosinophils to health and disease. However, it appears that not all eosinophils from all species are created equal. It remains unclear, for example, exactly how having eosinophils benefits the human host when helminth infections in the developed world have become scarce. This review focuses on our current state of knowledge as it relates to human eosinophils. When information is lacking, we discuss lessons learned from mouse studies that may or may not directly apply to human biology and disease. It is an exciting time to be an "eosinophilosopher" because the use of biologic agents that selectively target eosinophils provides an unprecedented opportunity to define the contribution of this cell to eosinophil-associated human diseases.

Molecular, endoscopic, histologic, and circulating biomarker-based diagnosis of eosinophilic gastritis: Multi-site study. J Allergy Clin Immunol 2019; 145:255-269. [PMID: 31738990 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaci.2019.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2019] [Revised: 11/03/2019] [Accepted: 11/06/2019] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Eosinophilic gastritis (EG) is a clinicopathologic disorder with marked gastric eosinophilia and clinical symptoms. There is an unmet need among patients with EG for more precise diagnostic tools. OBJECTIVE We aimed to develop tissue- and blood-based diagnostic platforms for EG. METHODS Patients with EG and control subjects without EG were enrolled across 9 Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease Researchers-associated sites. An EG Diagnostic Panel (EGDP; gastric transcript subset) and EG blood biomarker panel (protein multiplex array) were analyzed. EGDP18 scores were derived from the expression of 18 highly dysregulated genes, and blood EG scores were derived from dysregulated cytokine/chemokine levels. RESULTS Gastric biopsy specimens and blood samples from 185 subjects (patients with EG, n = 74; control subjects without EG, n = 111) were analyzed. The EGDP (1) identified patients with active EG (P < .0001, area under the curve ≥ 0.95), (2) effectively monitored disease activity in longitudinal samples (P = .0078), (3) highly correlated in same-patient samples (antrum vs body, r = 0.85, P < .0001), and (4) inversely correlated with gastric peak eosinophil levels (r = -0.83, P < .0001), periglandular circumferential collars (r = -0.73, P < .0001), and endoscopic nodularity (r = -0.45, P < .0001). For blood-based platforms, eotaxin-3, thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, IL-5, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin levels were significantly increased. Blood EG scores (1) distinguished patients with EG from control subjects without EG (P < .0001, area under the curve ≥ 0.91), (2) correlated with gastric eosinophil levels (plasma: r = 0.72, P = .0002; serum: r = 0.54, P = .0015), and (3) inversely correlated with EGDP18 scores (plasma: r = -0.64, P = .0015; serum: r = -0.46, P = .0084). Plasma eotaxin-3 levels strongly associated with gastric CCL26 expression (r = 0.81, P < .0001). CONCLUSION We developed tissue- and blood-based platforms for assessment of EG and uncovered robust associations between specific gastric molecular profiles and histologic and endoscopic features, providing insight and clinical readiness tools for this emerging rare disease.

Abstract
The aim of precision medicine is setting up targeted therapies for selected patients that would ideally have high effectiveness and few side effects. This is made possible by targeted therapy drugs that selectively act on a specific pathway. Precision medicine is spreading to many medical specialties, and there is increasing interest in the context of allergic airway diseases, such as allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, and asthma. This review is an update of new targets in the treatment of childhood allergic upper airway diseases and asthma, including the most recent biologic drugs that have already been licensed or are in the pipeline to be tested with children.
