Abstract

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common types of respiratory disease and affects a large proportion of the population worldwide. The clinical differences between CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) facilitate studies on the development of polyps. In the present study, next‑generation sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) in CRSwNP vs. CRSsNP tissues and subsequently validated the expression of selected genes using reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. In total, 6 miRNAs were identified to be downregulated in the CRSwNP samples compared with those in the CRSsNP samples. The predicted targets of these miRNAs were determined to be enriched in a number of signaling pathways, including the ErbB, Ras, cyclic adenosine monophosphate and Janus kinase (Jak)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways. The expression of miR‑4492 and that if its targets predicted by a bioinformatics analysis, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF‑α) and interleukin (IL)‑10, was validated in 96 clinical specimens. miR‑4492 was downregulated and IL‑10 was upregulated in CRSwNP vs. CRSsNP tissues, and an inverse correlation between miR‑4492 and IL‑10 was determined in CRS tissues; however no difference was identified in the expression of TNF‑α between the different groups. The present results indicate that the miR‑4492/IL‑10 interaction in the Jak/STAT signaling pathway may be one of the key mechanisms in CRSwNP.
