Abstract (English): Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a common disease in which inflammatory responses to exogenic stressors, such as viral infections, has been recognised. The role of viruses in CRSwNP pathogenesis is unclear. Aims/objectives: We aimed to characterise Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human papillomavirus (HPV), human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), and human adenovirus (HAdV) in nasal polyps and adjacent paired healthy turbinate mucosa. Materials and methods: We used real-time PCR for EBV, HCMV, and HAdV DNA detection, combined PCR/microarrays for HPV detection and genotyping, in samples from 45 patients with CRSwNP. Additionally, we used EBER in situ hybridisation for EBV detection. Results: EBV detection with EBER-ISH was significantly higher in polyps (36%) versus turbinate mucosa (12%). None of the viral comparisons with PCR between polyps and turbinate mucosa for EBV-, HCMV- or HAdV-DNA showed statistically significant differences. All samples were HPV negative. Conclusions and significance: We report higher expression of EBV in nasal polyps (36%) than in adjacent healthy turbinate mucosa (12%), using a valid method; EBER-ISH in 45 patients with CRSwNP. EBV might be a possible stressor that can trigger polypoid inflammation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Chinese): 慢性鼻窦炎伴鼻息肉 (CRSwNP) 是一种常见疾病, 已经认识到该病的对病毒感染等外部应激源的炎症反应。病毒的 CRSwNP 发病机制作用尚不清楚。 我们旨在确定鼻息肉和相邻的健康鼻甲粘膜中的 Epstein-Barr 病毒 (EBV)、人乳头瘤病毒 (HPV)、人类巨细胞病毒 (HCMV) 和人类腺病毒 (HAdV)的特征。 我们对 45 名 CRSwNP 患者的样本使用实时 PCR 来检测 EBV、HCMV 和 HAdV DNA, 综合运用 PCR/微阵列检测 HPV 和基因分型。此外, 我们使用 EBER 原位杂交来检测 EBV。 使用 EBER-ISH 检测息肉 (36%) 中的 EBV 明显高于鼻甲粘膜 (12%)。使用 PCR 对息肉和鼻甲粘膜进行 EBV-、HCMV 或 HAdV-DNA 病毒比较, 均未显示统计学上显著差异。所有样本均为 HPV 阴性。 我们使用一种有效的方法, 发现鼻息肉 (36%) 中的 EBV 表达高于邻近健康鼻甲粘膜 (12%); 45 名 CRSwNP 患者携带 EBER-ISH。EBV 可能是引发息肉样炎症的潜在应激源。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
