Abstract

Background/objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating immune responses and have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various nasal diseases, including chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), allergic rhinitis (AR), and sinonasal tumors. This review comprehensively explores the emerging role of miRNAs in inflammatory and oncological nasal diseases, highlighting their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential.

Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to summarize current findings on miRNA expression in nasal inflammatory conditions and tumors. Key studies evaluating miRNA-mediated regulatory mechanisms, potential biomarker applications, and therapeutic approaches were analyzed.

Results: Altered miRNA expression profiles contribute to the pathogenesis of CRS, AR, and sinonasal tumors. Specific miRNAs, such as miR-125b and miR-155 are upregulated in CRS and AR, promoting inflammation and tissue remodeling. In sinonasal tumors, dysregulated miRNAs, including miR-126 and miR-34/miR-449 clusters, influence tumor progression and therapeutic response. Exosome-mediated miRNA delivery emerges as a promising avenue for precision medicine, offering novel strategies for miRNA-based diagnostics and therapies.

Conclusions: miRNAs are key regulators of nasal diseases, with potential applications in non-invasive diagnostics and targeted therapies. Further research into miRNA-based interventions may improve treatment outcomes and contribute to the development of personalized medicine approaches for nasal inflammatory disorders and malignancies.
