However, the existing treatment methods have certain limitations, and more effective treatment strategies are needed. To this end, we proposed an ovalbumin-induced guinea pig model of AR to investigate the potential impact of activated polyethylene glycol (PEG) with varying molecular weights and concentrations in local nasal treatment. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by behavioral score, serological detection, and histopathological observation. The behavioral assessment demonstrated significant alleviation of sneezing frequency, nasal pruritus, and clear nasal discharge in the activated PEG-600 treatment groups relative to the sham group. However, statistical analysis revealed no appreciable intergroup differences between the activated PEG-3400 treatment groups and the sham group. Histopathological evaluation disclosed a marked reduction in eosinophilic infiltration in the activated PEG-600 group, accompanied by preservation of nasal mucosal structural integrity and notable attenuation of inflammatory infiltration. In contrast, the activated PEG-3400 group exhibited comparatively limited therapeutic efficacy, demonstrating only a subtle reduction in inflammatory cell counts and more pronounced disorganization of mucosal epithelial architecture compared to the PEG-600-treated group. Serum immunological profiling indicated that while local inflammatory markers showed evidence of mitigation, systemic immune parameters remained unaffected by either activated PEG formulation. These findings underscore the differential efficacy profile between PEG-600 and PEG-3400 derivatives in ameliorating AR symptoms, among which PEG-600 exhibits superior anti- inflammatory effects.","PeriodicalId":14560,"journal":{"name":"Iranian journal of allergy, asthma, and immunology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147877776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to perform unbiased analysis of transcriptomic data to identify differentially expressed m6A-related genes in asthma, with a focus on exploring their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Functional enrichment analysis was performed clusterProfiler, immune infiltration profiling was conducted with CIBERSORT, and a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA, including microRNA [miR] and lncRNA) network was constructed. Drug enrichment analysis was carried out using DSigDB, and molecular docking was utilized to assess the interaction between dabigatran and the METTL3 protein. From 192 differentially expressed genes, four m6A-related genes (METTL3, HNRNPC, IGFBP2, and RBMX) were identified as the intersecting genes between the m6A-related gene set and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the GSE134544 dataset. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed significant enrichment in biological processes related to RNA metabolic processes and post-transcriptional regulation, while Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis identified important pathways such as spliceosome and p53 signaling pathways. METTL3 and HNRNPC were central in the ceRNA network, interacting with miRs such as hsa-miR-93-3p and lncRNAs like LINC01529. Drug enrichment analysis identified dabigatran as a potential METTL3 inhibitor, with molecular docking confirming a stable binding affinity (-5.9 kcal/mol). This study emphasizes the critical role of m6A-related genes, particularly METTL3 and HNRNPC, as macromolecules in asthma pathophysiology, and provides insights into their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for asthma treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":14560,"journal":{"name":"Iranian journal of allergy, asthma, and immunology","volume":"25 2","pages":"222-233"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147868370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
