Although the expression of Mex3 RNA-binding family member B (MEX3B) is upregulated in human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) predominately in the eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) subtype, its functions as an RNA binding protein in airway epithelial cells remain unknown. This evidence concerns the gene MEX3D and congenital rubella syndrome.
