Abstract
All the samples could be classified to nasal polyps group or proper mucosa group, it reflected significant differences in genes profile expression in both groups. The evaluation of 22 283 genes transcriptions showed that in most cases nasal polyps tissue reflect classification connected with dominant inflammation cells infiltration. The data obtained let distinguish subgroups connected with clinical condition of the patients. The subgroup with massive nasal and sinus polyposis, eosinophilia and differentiated lower respiratory airways hyperactivity and the subgroup without eosinophilia infiltration may be distinguished. The data obtained suggest that molecular mechanisms may influence on the promotion and kind of inflammation process as well as the clinical course of nasal polyps.
