The pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis is still unknown. The aim. To estimate IgE-antibodies to staphylococcal enterotoxines and fungal allergens mix in nasal polyps'supernatant and sera of three phenotypes of chronic rhinosinusitis. Patients and methods. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis with aspirin intolerance - 12 patients, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis with atopy - 15 patients, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis without atopy and aspirin intolerance - 10 patients, and 6 healthy persons were observed. The levels of ECP, tryptase, total IgE, IgE-antibodies to staphylococcal enterotoxines, fungal mix in sera and supernatant of polyp's tissue were detected by ImmunoCaplOO (Phadia AB). Results. The incidence of IgE-antibodies to staphylococcal enterotoxines makes up 12,6% in the sera of all patients, and 30% in polyp's tissue in nonatopic patients and in none of atopics. The local production of IgE-antibodies to fungi in polyp's tissue was high and revealed in 30-73% of all patients (more often in patients with aspirin intolerance - in 73% of cases). There was no dependence between the incidence of IgE-antibodies to staphylococcal enterotoxines, fungal allergens mix in the sera and polyps and the chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. Conclusion. The incidence of IgE-antibodies to staphylococcal enterotoxines, fungal allergens mix in polyp's tissue is higher than in sera as in atopic as in nonatopic pts. There were IgE-antibodies to fungi in polyp's tissue in 73% of patients with aspirin intolerance. The presence of IgE-antibodies did not influence on the level of ECP and severity of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
