Expression levels of endogenous hydrogen sulfide are altered in patients with allergic rhinitis

Abstract: Objectives/Hypothesis: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), the third endogenous gaseous transmitter, may be a crucial mediator in airway hyper‐responsiveness and airway inflammation, including asthma. To elucidate the role of H2S in allergic rhinitis, the present study was undertaken to determine the level of expression of H2S in healthy nasal mucosa and mild and moderate/severe persistent allergic nasal mucosa as well as peripheral blood obtained from each patient. The expression and distribution pattern of the H2S‐synth… Show more

“…In a guinea pig model of ovalbumin-induced allergic rhinitis, the levels of serum H 2 S and CSE mRNA expression in nasal mucosa were significantly reduced and the clinical disease was more severe upon administration of the CSE inhibitor PAG (44,45). However, two human studies of nasal mucosal samples isolated from patients with allergic rhinitis showed higher levels of H 2 S, CSE, and CBS mRNA and protein expression (46), and no correlation with either the severity of disease or the presence or absence of polyps (47).…”

“…A previous study in humans has suggested that this gasotransmitter may have multiple functions in human nasal mucosa and contribute to the development of allergic symptoms such as rhinorrhea, sneezing and nasal stuffiness. 234 However, other studies on the regulation of the endogenous H2S pathway in the nasal mucosa of an AR guinea pig model has suggested that H2S may exert anti-inflammatory as well as antioxidant effects in the nasal mucosa and therefore may serve a protective function in AR patients. 235 …”

“…These results are in accordance with those of our previous results evaluated in human nasal mucosa. 32 These observations imply that in human nasal and sinus mucosa, CBS may be the main H 2 S-producing enzyme in superficial and submucosal glandular epithelium, and CSE may Copyright (c) Oceanside Publications, Inc.
