BackgroundChronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a highly heterogeneous disease and can be categorized into eosinophilic CRSwNP (eCRSwNP) and non-eosinophilic CRSwNP (neCRSwNP). Exploring effective biomarkers to distinguish endotypes is important for personalized therapies. The present study aims to evaluate the predictive value of serum MIF in CRSwNP endotypes.MethodsOne hundred and twenty CRSwNP patients, including 51 eCRSwNP and 69 neCRSwNP, 40 chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) patients and 40 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled. Serum MIF levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The patients’ clinical variables were analyzed for correlations with serum MIF. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and multivariate analysis were utilized to assess the predictive value of serum MIF in CRSwNP endotypes.ResultsThe serum MIF levels were significantly higher in CRSwNP group than CRSsNP group and HC group (P < 0.001), and the serum MIF levels were increased in eCRSwNP compared to neCRSwNP group (P = 0.006). Elevated serum MIF levels were significantly correlated with blood eosinophil (B-EOS) count (r = 0.411, P < 0.001), B-EOS percentage (r = 0.377, P < 0.001), visual analog scale score (r = 0.204, P = 0.025), tissue eosinophil (T-EOS) count (r = 0.705, P < 0.001) and T-EOS percentage (r = 0.671, P < 0.001) in CRSwNP patients. ROC curve demonstrated that serum MIF exhibited good preoperative prediction in CRSwNP endotypes (area under the curve = 0.925, P < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that serum MIF was an independent factor associated with CRSwNP endotypes.ConclusionsThis was the first study identifying serum MIF as a possible specific biomarker for preoperatively distinguishing CRSwNP endotypes. Furthermore, the serum MIF levels were found to be closely associated with the degree of mucosal eosinophil infiltration.
