Chronic rhinosinusitis with and without nasal polyps (CRSwNP and CRSsNP, respectively) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting almost 5 to 12% of the population and exhibiting high recurrence rates after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). TGFβ1-related pathways contribute to tissue remodelling, which is one of the key aspects of CRS pathogenesis. Additionally, adenosine signalling participates in inflammatory processes, and CNPase was shown to elevate adenosine levels by metabolizing cyclic monophosphates. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the expression levels of Smad2, pSmad3, TGFβ1, and CNPase protein via immunohistochemistry in sinus epithelial tissues from patients with CRSwNP (n = 20), CRSsNP (n = 23), and non-CRS patients (n = 8). The expression of Smad2, pSmad3, TGFβ1, and CNPase was observed in the sinus epithelium and subepithelial area of all three groups of patients, and their expression correlated with several clinical symptoms of CRS. Smad2 expression was increased in CRSsNP patients compared to CRSwNP patients and controls (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively), pSmad3 expression was elevated in CRSwNP patients compared to controls (p = 0.007), TGFβ1 expression was elevated in CRSwNP patients compared to controls (p = 0.009), and CNPase was decreased in CRSsNP patients compared to controls (p = 0.03). To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to demonstrate CNPase expression in the upper airway epithelium of CRSwNP, CRSsNP, and non-CRS patients and point out a putative synergy between CNPase and TGFβ1/Smad signalling in CRS pathogenesis that emerges as a novel still undiscovered aspect of CRS pathogenesis; further studies are needed to explore its function in the course of the chronic inflammation of the upper airways.
