Abstract
Objectives: Allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) is an eosinophilic subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP). This study aimed to investigate the transcriptome of AFRS nasal polyp epithelium.
Methods: Sinonasal epithelial cells were harvested from healthy nasal mucosa and polyp tissue collected from participants undergoing elective sinonasal surgery. Primary epithelial cells were subsequently grown in air/liquid interface and subjected to RNA-seq analysis, RT-qPCR, immunoblotting, and immunostaining.
Results: A total of 19 genes were differentially expressed between healthy and AFRS sample epithelium. The second top candidate gene, ranked by adjusted p-value, was prostaglandin E receptor 2 (PTGER2). The upregulation of PTGER2 was confirmed by RT-qPCR and immunoblot. The presence of the EP2 receptor, encoded by the PTGER2 gene, was confirmed by immunocytochemistry.
Conclusion: PTGER2 is a potential novel therapeutic target for AFRS. EP2 dysregulation is associated with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, potentially giving insight into common mechanisms of disease in severe CRSwNP.
期刊介绍：
The Laryngoscope has been the leading source of information on advances in the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck disorders since 1890. The Laryngoscope is the first choice among otolaryngologists for publication of their important findings and techniques. Each monthly issue of The Laryngoscope features peer-reviewed medical, clinical, and research contributions in general otolaryngology, allergy/rhinology, otology/neurotology, laryngology/bronchoesophagology, head and neck surgery, sleep medicine, pediatric otolaryngology, facial plastics and reconstructive surgery, oncology, and communicative disorders. Contributions include papers and posters presented at the Annual and Section Meetings of the Triological Society, as well as independent papers, "How I Do It", "Triological Best Practice" articles, and contemporary reviews. Theses authored by the Triological Society’s new Fellows as well as papers presented at meetings of the American Laryngological Association are published in The Laryngoscope.
