The aim of the study was to develop a sustained-release varnish (SRV) containing mometasone furoate (MMF) for sinonasal stents (SNS) to reduce mucosa inflammation in the sinonasal cavity. The SNS' segments coated with SRV-MMF or an SRV-placebo were incubated daily in a fresh DMEM at 37 °C for 20 days. The immunosuppressive activity of the collected DMEM supernatants was tested on the ability of mouse RAW 264.7 macrophages to secrete the cytokines' tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-6 in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The cytokine levels were determined by respective Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISAs). We found that the daily amount of MMF released from the coated SNS was sufficient to significantly inhibit LPS-induced IL-6 and IL-10 secretion from the macrophages up to days 14 and 17, respectively. SRV-MMF had, however, only a mild inhibitory effect on LPS-induced TNFα secretion as compared to the SRV-placebo-coated SNS. In conclusion, the coating of SNS with SRV-MMF provides a sustained delivery of MMF for at least 2 weeks, maintaining a level sufficient for inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine release. This technological platform is, therefore, expected to provide anti-inflammatory benefits during the postoperative healing period and may play a significant role in the future treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis.
