Project description:Rationale: Elevated numbers of antibody secreting cells (ASCs) and anti-dsDNA antibodies are found in nasal polyp (NP) tissue. Tissue anti-dsDNA IgG prospectively predicts recurrent NP, but the characteristics of the source ASCs are unknown. Objectives: To investigate whether NP B cells expressing the extrafollicular marker EBI2 have increased propensity for autoantibody production and to evaluate the molecular characteristics of NP ASCs. Findings: NPs (n=8) showed increased frequencies of anti-dsDNA IgG and total IgG ASCs (34- and 9-fold, respectively, both p<0.0001) compared to tonsils (n=10), with more pronounced differences among EBI2+ cells. In NPs, EBI2+ cells were frequently double-negative (IgD-CD27-) and ASCs (36.3% and 19.5%, respectively). ScRNA-seq analysis of tonsils and NPs (both n=5) revealed substantial differences in B lineage composition: ASCs (1.2% vs 44.1%), germinal center (23.1% vs 0.2%), proliferative (12.6% vs 3.0%), and non-ASCs (63.1% vs 52.7%), respectively. NPs exhibited higher expression (>2-fold) of specific isotypes (IGHE, IGHA1, IGHA2, and IGHG4), and mature plasma genes including SDC1 and XBP1 than tonsils. GO biological processes indicated upregulated NF-κB and downregulated apoptosis pathways in NP ASCs. Conclusions: NP EBI2+ ASCs secreted increased total and anti-dsDNA IgG compared to those from tonsils and had molecular features of mature plasma cell differentiation.

The presence of anti-dsDNA IgG in tissue prospectively predicts recurrent NP but the characteristics of the source ASCs are unknown. Here, we investigated whether NP B cells expressing the extrafollicular marker EBI2 have increased propensity for autoantibody production and evaluated the molecular characteristics of NP ASCs. NPs showed increased frequencies of anti-dsDNA IgG and total IgG ASCs compared with tonsils, with more pronounced differences among EBI2+ cells. In NPs, EBI2+ cells were frequently double negative (IgD-CD27-) and ASCs. Single-cell RNA-Seq analysis of tonsils and NPs revealed substantial differences in B lineage composition, including differences in percentages of ASCs, germinal centers, proliferative cells, and non-ASCs. NPs exhibited higher expression of specific isotypes (IGHE, IGHA1, IGHA2, and IGHG4) and mature plasma genes, including SDC1 and XBP1, than tonsils. Gene Ontology biological processes indicated upregulated NF-κB and downregulated apoptosis pathways in NP ASCs. Together, these data indicate that NP EBI2+ ASCs secret increased total and anti-dsDNA IgG compared with those from tonsils and had molecular features of mature plasma cell differentiation.

Project description:Here we describe the dynamics underlying the generation of IgE-antibody secreting cells (ASC) in human nasal polyps (NP), mucosal tissues rich in ASC without germinal centers (GC). Using VH next generation sequencing, we identified an extrafollicular (EF) mucosal IgD+ naïve-like intermediate B cell population with high connectivity to the mucosal IgE ASC. Mucosal IgD+ B cells, express germline epsilon transcripts and predominantly co-express IgM. However, a small but significant fraction co-express IgG or IgA instead which also show connectivity to ASC IgE. Phenotypically, NP IgD+ B cells display an activated profile and molecular evidence of BCR engagement. Transcriptionally, mucosal IgD+ B cells reveal an intermediate profile between naïve B cells and ASC. Single cell IgE ASC analysis demonstrates lower mutational frequencies relative to IgG, IgA, and IgD ASC consistent with IgE ASC derivation from mucosal IgD+ B cell with low mutational load. In conclusion, we describe a novel mechanism of GC-independent, extrafollicular IgE ASC formation at the nasal mucosa whereby activated IgD+ naïve B cells locally undergo direct and indirect (through IgG and IgA), IgE class-switch.

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: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).

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.
