Delayed microbiota maturation in infants with cystic fibrosis could contribute to disease complications, highlighting potential therapeutic targets.
The findings of a recent study suggest that while T. musculis can worsen asthma, it might also help the body fight off infections, offering potential for new treatments targeting the…
The findings suggest that the microbial communities inhabiting an infant’s nose and throat can play a role in the severity of RSV infections.
The findings suggest that the development and maturation of the nasal microbiota are influenced by age and sex, while lifestyle factors shape the throat microbiota.
The results of a recent study reveal that the severity of respiratory infections depends at least in part on a complex interplay between the gut microbiota and the immune system.
Aran Singanayagam, research group leader at Imperial College London (UK), examined how disturbances in the airway microbiome are instrumental in the development of chronic lung diseases.
Maria Lluch Senar, Founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Pulmobiotics SL, discusses the research on engineering Live Biotherapeutics in order to expose antigens or deliver therapeutic agents to treat complex…
By suggesting that the bacteria detected in the brain after severe pneumonia originate from the lungs, the findings shed light onto the mechanisms of pneumonia-induced neurological conditions.
The findings of a recent study suggest that, during SARS-CoV-2 infection, some bacteria in the upper airways’ microbiota may be associated with a person’s disease progression to intubation.
The findings suggest that the interplay between the respiratory tract microbiota, the levels of bacterial pathogens and specific clinical interventions is a key factor in determining the outcome of bacterial…
