Host-microbial interactions in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis 2013-11-28 .txt text/plain 11724 629 37 12 Our group found that cultured airway epithelial cells from patients with CRSsNP had an exaggerated response to stimulation with the combination of double-stranded RNA (a Toll-like receptor [TLR] 3 agonist and surrogate for viral infection) plus cigarette smoke extract, with exaggerated production of RANTES and hBD-2. Ramanathan et al 3 showed that culturing human sinonasal epithelial cells in the presence of the T H 2 cytokines IL-4 or IL-13 for 36 hours reduced expression of antimicrobial innate immune genes by using real-time PCR, ELISA, and flow cytometry, including TLR9, hBD-2, and SP-A. This has been shown in cultured airway epithelial cells and dispersed T lymphocytes from NPs. Fungi are commonly detected in the attached mucus of sinus tissues in patients with CRS 47,165 and can induce eosinophil activation and degranulation. Th2 cytokines associated with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps down-regulate the antimicrobial immune function of human sinonasal epithelial cells Th2 cytokines associated with chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps down-regulate the antimicrobial immune function of human sinonasal epithelial cells ./cache/cord-281566-6v5zfue6.txt ./txt/cord-281566-6v5zfue6.txt
