A murine model of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis using the topical application of a vitamin D3 analog

Our model of ECRS displayed Th2-type inflammation in the sinonasal region, including both eosinophil infiltration and basophil infiltration. Additionally, olfactory epithelium turned out to be affected by eosinophilic inflammation. These features are consistent with the characteristics of the human ECRS.
