Abstract
Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease affecting more than 10% of the global adult population. It is classified into Th1, Th2, and Th17 endotypes and eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic types. Th2-based inflammation and eosinophilic CRS (ECRS) are associated with tissue remodeling and fibrinolytic system impairment. Objective To elucidate the role of eosinophils in inducing fibrin deposition in CRS nasal polyp tissues and explore potential regulatory mechanisms. Methods We analyzed the expression of genes related to the serpin family and fibrinolytic system using Gene Expression Omnibus and Next-generation sequencing data. Differentially expression genes (DEGs) analysis was used to compare control and nasal polyp tissues, followed by KEGG and Gene ontology (GO) analysis. We measured the expression and correlation of plasminogen activator-1 (PAI-1), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA), and urokinase plasminogen activator surface receptor (u-PAR) in CRS tissues, and evaluated the effect of eosinophils on the fibrinolytic system using a cytokine array and co-culture. Results Nasal polyp tissues showed upregulated PAI-1, u-PA, and u-PAR expression and downregulated t-PA expression. Fibrinolytic system-related genes positively correlated with Th2 cytokines, except for t-PA. Eosinophil-derived Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1) increased PAI-1 expression and decreased t-PA levels in fibroblasts and epithelial cells. The inhibition of CHI3L1 suppresses these alterations. Conclusion CHI3L1 contributes to fibrin deposition by impairing the fibrinolytic system during nasal polyp formation. The regulation of CHI3L1 expression may inhibit fibrin deposition and edema in ECRS, presenting a potential treatment for this condition.

Luo C, Zhu Y, Zhang S, Zhou J, Mao S, Tang R, Gu Y, Tan S, Lin H, Li Z, Zhang W. Increased SERPINB2 potentiates 15LO1 expression via STAT6 signalling in epithelial cells in eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. Clin Exp Allergy 2024; 54:412-424. [PMID: 38639267 DOI: 10.1111/cea.14484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND SERPINB2, a biomarker of Type-2 (T2) inflammatory processes, has been described in the context of asthma. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is also correlated with T2 inflammation and elevated 15LO1 induced by IL-4/13 in nasal epithelial cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression and location of SERPINB2 in nasal epithelial cells (NECs) and determine whether SERPINB2 regulates 15LO1 and downstream T2 markers in NECs via STAT6 signalling. METHODS SERPINB2 gene expression in bulk and single-cell RNAseq database was analysed by bioinformatics analysis. SERPINB2, 15LO1 and other T2 markers were evaluated from CRSwNP and HCs NECs. The colocalization of SERPINB2 and 15LO1 was evaluated by immunofluorescence. Fresh NECs were cultured at an air-liquid interface with or without IL-13, SERPINB2 Dicer-substrate short interfering RNAs (DsiRNAs) transfection, exogenous SERPINB2, 15-HETE recombinant protein and pSTAT6 inhibitors. 15LO1, 15-HETE and downstream T2 markers were analysed by qRT-PCR, western blot and ELISA. RESULTS SERPINB2 expression was increased in eosinophilic nasal polyps compared with that in noneosinophilic nasal polyps and control tissues and positively correlated with 15LO1 and other downstream T2 markers. SERPINB2 was predominantly expressed by epithelial cells in NP tissue and was colocalized with 15LO1. In primary NECs in vitro, SERPINB2 expression was induced by IL-13. Knockdown or overexpression SERPINB2 decreased or enhanced expression of 15LO1 and 15-HETE in NECs, respectively, in a STAT6-dependent manner. SERPINB2 siRNA also inhibited the expression of the 15LO1 downstream genes, such as CCL26, POSTN and NOS2. STAT6 inhibition similarly decreased SERPINB2-induced 15LO1. CONCLUSIONS SERPINB2 is increased in NP epithelial cells of eosinophilic CRSwNP (eCRSwNP) and contributes to T2 inflammation via STAT6 signalling. SERPINB2 could be considered a novel therapeutic target for eCRSwNP.

[PMID: 38179503 PMCID: PMC10764515 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1273502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Vascular fibrosis is a widespread pathologic condition that arises during vascular remodeling in cardiovascular dysfunctions. According to previous studies, vascular fibrosis is characterized by endothelial matrix deposition and vascular wall thickening. The RAAS and TGF-β/Smad signaling pathways have been frequently highlighted. It is, however, far from explicit in terms of understanding the cause and progression of vascular fibrosis. In this review, we collected and categorized a large number of molecules which influence the fibrosing process, in order to acquire a better understanding of vascular fibrosis, particularly of pathologic dysfunction. Furthermore, several mediators that prevent vascular fibrosis are discussed in depth in this review, with the aim that this will contribute to the future prevention and treatment of related conditions.
