AbstractThis study was conducted to explore the roles and related mechanisms of lncRNA-TCONS_00147848 (TCONS_00147848) in nasal mucosa cell apoptosis and allergic rhinitis (AR). AR mice were sensitized with ovalbumin (OVA), with the TCONS_00147848 interference lentiviral vector (TCONS_00147848 shRNA) and FOSL2 overexpressing lentiviral vectors (pCDH-FOSL2) constructed respectively. NC shRNA, TCONS_00147848 shRNA and TCONS_00147848 shRNA + pCDH-FOSL2 were transfected into AR mice and mice with TNF-α induced nasal mucosa cells. The allergic reaction symptoms were evaluated by scoring. And in this study, we used Hematoxylin–Eosin (HE) staining and Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) to detect the histological changes of nasal mucosa and apoptosis of nasal mucosa epithelial cells in mice, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, Transwell and annexin V/PI to detect proliferation, migration and apoptosis of nasal mucosa cells of mice, respectively, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the expression of inflammatory factors, qRT-PCR to detect TCONS_00147848 expression, Western blot assay to detect the expressions of FOSL2, JAK-2, STAT3, p-STAT3, BAX and BCL-2, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay, RNA pull down assay and Co-immunoprecipitation (CoIP) assay to identify TCONS_00147848 targeting FOSL2. All these findings above reveal that knocking down TCONS_00147848 can reduce the allergic reaction symptom score of AR mice and the inflammatory reaction. The expression of IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, IL-9, IFN-γ and TNF-α in serum decreased. The expression of FOSL2, JAK-2, p-STAT3 and BAX in nasal mucosa and nasal mucosa cells of mice decreased as well, but BCL-2 expression increased. In addition, koncking down TCONS_00147848 can also inhibit the apoptosis of TNF-α induced nasal mucosa cells in mice and promote cell proliferation and migration. However, FOSL2 overexpression neutralized the effect of TCONS_00147848 shRNA. In nasal mucosa cells of mice, TCONS_00147848 can target FOSL2, interacting with STAT3. Inhibition of TCONS_00147848 can regulate JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway and reduce inflammatory response in AR mice.

Introduction. The primitive malignant melanoma of nasal mucosa and paranasal sinus is a rare tumor of uncertain etiology, with unpredictable biologic behavior and bad prognosis. Unlike skin melanomas, there are no risk factors and the disease is frequently manifested in older patients, whose clinical otorhinolaryngology complaints are normally non-specific and ranges from nasal obstruction to rhinorrhea and epistaxis. Unfortunately, this disease is diagnosed basically in advanced stages which makes the surgery difficult. Objective. To report a case of primitive malignant melanoma of nasal mucosa, ethmoid and frontal sinuses, that was diagnosed in 2015. It was performed a subtotal resection in another hospital in 24.08.2015, with a large local reccurence. Report. Our patient was a 78-year-old woman with bilateral nasal obstruction, light epistaxis and unilateral rhinorrhea. The ENT, CT and  MRI exams showed a tumour with important, invasion of the nasal cavity structures (billateral nasal bones, left frontal process of the maxilla, the superior midpoint of the nasal septum, bilateral middle and superior turbinates, left ethmoid and bilateral frontal sinuses). The patient was submited for surgery: total macroscopic resection in the combined endoscopic approach; transnasal and modified lateral rhinotomy with titaniul plates reconstruction of the external nose architecture. Conclusions. Malignant melanomas of nasal mucosa are, in general, diagnosed in advanced stages. Their histological characteristics in the mucosa makes difficult the surgical treatment, which is one of the most efficient options, because they are resistant to chemo and radiotherapy. The early diagnosis and a good surgical treatment plan are the best option for this tumor nowadays.
