Project description:Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps is a hallmaerk disease in the field of upper airway immunity and chronic inflammation. Diverse inflammatory patterns between nasal polyps have been described in patients that hail from disparate racial and geographic backgrounds. However, it remains unclear whether these immunologic differences in nasal polyps between racial groups are driven by unique molecular mechanisms. We interrogated the gene expression profiles of nasal polyp tissues from Western (United States) and East Asian (Japan) descent, compared to ethmoid sinus tissue controls.

Project description:The nasal epithelium is the primary initial site of SARS-CoV-2 entry in the human body. Since much of the molecular detail defining coronavirus entry and replication was derived from non-nasal cell lines, it remains unclear how SARS-CoV-2 overcomes the physical nasal mucus and periciliary mucin layers to infect and spread through the nasal epithelium. Using air-liquid interface cultured primary nasal epithelial cells, we observed that SARS-CoV-2 attaches to motile cilia during the initial stage of infection. Depletion of cilia inhibited SARS-CoV-2, as well as respiratory syncytial virus and parainfluenza virus infection, suggesting a widely-used ciliary mechanism for respiratory viral entry. Using electron and immunofluorescence microscopy, we further observed that SARS-CoV-2 progeny virions attached to airway microvilli 24 hours post infection and triggered the formation of apically extended and highly branched microvilli that organize viral egress from the microvillar base back into the mucus layer, supporting a model of virus dispersion throughout airway tissue via mucociliary transport. Chemical perturbation of microvillus formation severely impaired viral egress and subsequent spread. Phosphoproteomic analyses indicate that virally-triggered microvillar branching is linked to the p21-activated kinase 1 and 4 (PAK1/4) signaling pathway and viral infection is impaired by PAK1/4 kinase inhibitors. Our work provides insight into the mechanisms by which SARS-CoV-2 and potentially many respiratory viruses penetrate the physical nasal epithelium barrier, a first line of defense against pathogens, thus revealing a new view of the motile cilia and microvilli as critical host factors required for viral entry and egress.

Project description:Background: Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is emerging as a widespread mechanism of gene regulation. The usage of APA sites allows a single gene to encode multiple mRNA transcripts with different 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) lengths. Many disease processes reflect the importance of the regulation of APA site switching. The objective of this study was to explore the profiling of tandem APA sites in nasal polyps compared with nasal uncinate process mucosa. Methods: Sequencing of APA sites (SAPAS) based on second-generation sequencing technology was undertaken to investigate the use of tandem APA sites and identify gene expression patterns in samples from the nasal polyps and nasal uncinate process mucosa of two patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. The findings of the SAPAS analysis were validated via quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results: First, the results showed a switching of 3'UTR lengths in nasal polyps compared with nasal uncinate process mucosa. From the two patients, 105 overlapping genes in the nasal polyps were switched to distal poly(A) sites, and 90 such genes were switched to proximal poly(A) sites. Several Gene Ontology terms were enriched in the list of genes with switched APA sites, including transcription regulation, cell cycle, apoptosis, and metabolism. Second, we detected genes that showed differential expression with at least a 3-fold difference between nasal polyp tissue and nasal uncinate process mucosa. Between the two sample types, 627 genes exhibited differential expression. The qRT-PCR results confirmed our SAPAS results. Conclusion: APA site-switching events of 3'UTRs are prevalent in nasal polyp tissue, and the regulation of gene expression mediated by APA may play an important role in the formation and persistence of nasal polyps. Our results may provide new insights into the possible pathophysiologic processes involved in nasal polyps. Investigate the use of tandem APA sites of 3'ends of mRNAs using second-generation sequencing technology.

Project description:NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD) represents a particularly severe endotype of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), which affects around 10-16% of CRSwNP patients. N-ERD is characterized by severe and refractory nasal polyposis, bronchial asthma and intolerance to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including aspirin. Today, the pathogenesis of N-ERD remains incompletely understood and curative treatments are lacking. Using a global transcriptomic approach, we identified local changes between the mucosa of N-ERD nasal polyps and healthy control inferior turbinates. Nasal brushing samples were collected from inferior turbinates of healthy controls and nasal polyps of N-ERD patients under anterior rhinoscopy and stored at -80°C in RNAprotect until RNA isolation and RNAseq.

Project description:Chronic rhinosinusitis is classified into eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) and non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (NECRS). ECRS is a refractory allergic disease involving a variety of immune and epithelial cells. S100A8 is a damage-associated molecular pattern that is closely related to allergic inflammation. However, the pathological implications of S100A8 in ECRS have not been clarified. We evaluated the role of S100A8 in the pathogenesis of ECRS. Gene expression profiles of nasal polyps obtained from patients with ECRS or NECRS were evaluated using RNA sequencing. S100A8 was identified as a significantly upregulated gene in nasal polyps associated with ECRS. Consistently, immunohistochemistry revealed that S100A8 stained intensely in nasal polyps from patients with ECRS. Human nasal epithelial cells expressed the receptor for advanced glycation end products and Toll-like receptor 4. Recombinant S100A8 protein induced interleukin-1β secretion in human nasal epithelial cells. Our data demonstrate that S100A8 induces production of interleukin-1β in the nasal epithelium, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of ECRS.

Project description:Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) have abnormal immune responses triggered by a variety of infectious agents, airborne toxins and fungi. Respiratory epithelial cells serve as relay stations capable of amplifying or augmenting cues received from external stimuli to nearby immune cells located in the sinus mucosa. Previous studies have identified increases in complement components and complement gene expression in the mucosa of patients with atopic CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). As part of a larger study, we used shotgun proteomics to quantify changes in mucus proteins between patients with and without nasal polyps.

Project description:Asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (aCRSwNP) is a common disruptive eosinophilic disease. Therefore, we sought to identify gene expression changes in nasosinus inflamed mucosa and adjacent polyp tissue from subjects with aCRSwNP. Twelve asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis (aCRS) subjects (11 with nasal polyps; aCRSwNP) provided inflamed nasosinus mucosa (11 samples) and adjacent polyp (10 samples) or a small mixed mucosa and polyp specimen (1 sample) (thus, 22 samples overall). Inflamed mucosa or polyp was from the middle meatus or anterior ethmoid cavity. As control samples, nasosinus tissue was collected from the inferior turbinate or uncinate process from normal or rhinitis subjects without nasal polyps (n=17); 4 had physician-diagnosed allergic rhinitis (AR), 2 had suspected AR, 1 had suspected vasomotor rhinitis, and 10 had no signs of nasosinus disease, allergy, or atopy. All 4 AR subjects chose to donate tissue outside of their known allergy season(s).
