Relationship Of

Bronchial asthma (BA) is often associated with chronic inflammatory processes in the nasal mucosa; these processes give rise to allergic rhinitis (AR), chronic rhinosinusitis, adenoiditis and polypous rhinosinusitis. Due to their multiple symptoms, these diseases of the upper respiratory tract, especially allergic rhinitis, are often difficult to verify in patients with asthma. The aim of the study was to assess the features of local inflammation of the nasal mucosa in patients with BA and AR. Patients and methods. 93 children with BA were examined. General clinical, allergological, functional examination, measurement of endonasal temperature and determination of IgE and IL4 content in nasal secretions were performed. Results. Children with BA have lower values of endonasal temperature than healthy ones. There was a tendency to decrease endonasal temperature as the symptoms of AR increased. In the acute stage of AR, the temperature values were lower than in the remission stage, р = 0,02. The addition of infectious inflammation of the nasal mucosa in children with AD was accompanied by an increase in endonasal temperature, р = 0,04. The increase of the content of nasal IgE in acute AR – 115,6 (49,9; 181,2) ME/mg, compared to the remission period to 24,9 (6,2; 43,7) ME/mg. Exacerbation of AR was associated with increased IL4 to 109,7 (54,2; 165,2) PG/mg, in the period of remission – 34,4 (12,0; 56,8) PG/mg. The increase of these biomarkers of allergic inflammation have a correlative relationship, R = 0,44, p = 0,002. The relationship of IL4 content with endonasal temperature, R = 0,44 р = 0,02 was established. Conclusion. Patients with BA and AR showed a decrease in endonasal temperature compared to healthy ones. Exacerbation of AR in children with BA characterized by an increase in the content of nasal IgE and IL4 and a decrease in endonasal temperature, which allows us to consider these indicators as biomarkers of activation of allergic inflammation.

The Relationship

Background Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common noninfectious respiratory diseases caused by immunoglobulin E (IgE) response. Objective The study sought to explore the relationship between lncRNA MIAT and miR-10b-5p and their interaction in the regulation of allergic phenotypes in allergic rhinitis (AR) mice. Methods A mice model of AR was constructed using ovalbumin (OVA) sensitization. AR mice were treated with miR-10b-5p agomiR and LNA mediated lncRNA MIAT. The targeting relationship between MIAT and miR-10b-5p was analyzed by the ENCORI website and dual-luciferase reporter assay. The numbers of rubbing and sneezing of mice were counted. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining visualized the eosinophils infiltration in nasal mucosa tissues of mice. The percentage of Th17 cells was quantitated by flow cytometry analysis. ELISA was used to detect the levels of serum OVA-specific IgE, the Th12 cytokine IL-4, and inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-17). Results MIAT was up-regulated in the nasal mucosa of AR mice, while miR-10b-5p was down-regulated. MIAT directly suppressed miR-10b-5p expression in AR mice. The numbers of rubbing and sneezing, the percentage of Th17 cells, and the levels of OVA-specific IgE, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-17 in AR mice were decreased by miR-10b-5p overexpression, which was reversed by MIAT overexpression. The eosinophils infiltration in AR mice was inhibited by miR-10b-5p overexpression, which was also reversed by MIAT overexpression. Conclusion The present study demonstrates that MIAT overexpression Promotes allergic inflammation and symptoms by activating Th17 immune response via miR-10b-5p inhibition.

Forty-six asthmatic children with repeated respiratory infections presented symptoms of allergic rhinitis. All patients were treated locally for allergic rhinitis either with disodium cromoglycate or beclomethasone dipropionate. After six months of treatment, 95% of the children showed improvement of allergic rhinitis and 84% improvement of bronchial asthma, as well as fewer infections. We concluded that allergic rhinitis plays an important role in facilitating infections of the upper respiratory tract, and a possible association of rhinitis, viral infections and bronchial asthma is discussed.

Epithelial Tight Junctions

The epithelial barrier of the upper respiratory tract plays a crucial role in host defense. In this study, to elucidate whether there is antigen monitoring by dendritic cells (DCs) beyond the epithelial tight-junction barrier in allergic rhinitis, we investigated the expression and function of tight junctions and characterized DCs in the epithelium of nasal mucosa from patients with allergic rhinitis. In reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, mRNAs of tight-junction proteins occludin, JAM-1, ZO-1, and claudin-1, −4, −7, −8, −12, −13, and −14 were detected in the nasal mucosa. Occludin, JAM-1, and ZO-1 were colocalized in the uppermost layer in the pseudostratified epithelium of the nasal mucosa, whereas claudin-1, −4, and −7 were found throughout the epithelium. In freeze-fracture replicas of the nasal mucosa, continuous tight-junction strands formed well-developed networks. Epithelial barrier function measured by a dye tracer was well maintained in occludin-positive tight junctions in the epithelium of the nasal mucosa. HLA-DR- and CD11c-positive DCs expressed claudin-1 and penetrated beyond occludin in the epithelium of the nasal mucosa with, but not without, allergic rhinitis. These results indicate that DCs may easily access antigens beyond epithelial tight junctions in the human nasal mucosa of allergic rhinitis.

Allergic diseases of the respiratory system seriously affect the psychological, physical and social aspects of the live of sick children, morally and financially exhausting members of their families as well. It is known that exacerbations of allergic diseases of the respiratory tract occur due to interaction with numerous triggers, one of which is a respiratory viral infection. At the same time, it is widely known that patients with allergic respiratory diseases are more prone to to acute respiratory infections. One of the reasons for this tendency often is an insufficient activity of non-specific factors of local immunity of the respiratory system – endogenous amphiphilic antimicrobial peptides, in particular the most studied their representatives - the family of defensins and human cathelicidin. Current research proves that these antimicrobial peptides are characterized by broad antiviral, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activity. The aim of this study was to study the concentrations of local immune factors - human HbD-2 and LL-37 - in the secretion of the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract in children with asthma and allergic rhinitis and to clarify their role in protection against respiratory viral infections in this contingent of patients. We performed laboratory and clinical examinations of 76 children aged 7 to 18 years, of whom 24 were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis, 28 children - bronchial asthma, and 24 - bronchial asthma and allergic rhinitis. The control group consisted of 20 healthy children of the appropriate sex and age. In addition to general clinical methods, patterns of respiratory morbidity were analyzed and concentrations of antimicrobial peptides were determined: by ELISA human cathelicidin (LL-37), β-defensin 2 (HbD-2) in the secretion of the upper respiratory tract, statistical analysis was performed. It was found that children with allergic diseases of the respiratory tract are characterized by a higher frequency of acute respiratory infections with more frequent involvement of the lower respiratory tract, which led to an increase in the duration of the disease compared to their healthy peers. In children with allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma, there was revealed a significant decrease in the concentrations of antimicrobial peptides in the secretion of the upper respiratory tract compared with the control group.

The prevalence of allergic diseases is increasing: according to recent data, about 20% of the worlds' population suffers from allergic rhinitis. About 30% of the reproductive age women are known to suffer from allergic rhinitis, and in a third of cases, symptoms of allergic rhinitis increase during pregnancy. Allergic inflammation is the result of contact with a causative allergen and elimination of causative allergens is not always possible. The creation of a protective barrier preventing the adhesion of allergens on the surface of the nasal mucosa reduces the penetration of allergens and helps control allergic rhinitis. Aqua Maris® Nasal Spray Ectoin is a completely natural remedy that creates a physical barrier (“barrier”) for attaching allergens to the nasal mucosa and prevents the development of allergic rhinitis. Aqua Maris® Ectoin can be used for allergic rhinitis treatment in pregnant and nursing women. Non-comparative open-label trial investigating the efficacy and safety of the Aqua Maris® Nasal Spray Ectoin was carried out from September to June 2019 at the Center of early diagnosis of allergic diseases in women of childbearing age Pavlov First Saint Petersburg State Medical University. The study included 45 pregnant women with allergic rhinitis. Clinical efficacy was evaluated by the severity of clinical symptoms and rhinoscopic data of patients in dynamics during treatment. As a result of the use of Aqua-Maris Ectoin in pregnant women, a significant reduction in complaints on the 10th day of therapy and a decrease in inflammatory phenomena in the nasal cavity were observed. In addition, a significantly significant decrease in secretory nasal IgE was noted. This indicates the effectiveness of the Aqua Maris® Nasal Spray Ectoin in the treatment of allergic rhinitis in pregnant women. Adverse events associated with the use of Ectoin Aqua Maris® Nasal Spray in pregnant women were not detected. Aqua Maris® Nasal Spray Ectoin can be used for effective and safe treatment of allergic rhinitis in pregnant women.
