Introduction[edit | edit source]
The lung is a specialised elaborate organ system that is impacted by various factors for example: oxygen abundance; its' interdependence (through a compacted net work of capillaries) to the extrapulmonary systems; and a range of immune cells living in the tissue at steady state. The lung also is host to a small biomass populace of commensal microorganisms that are active during both health and disease, and are able to adjust regulatory immune responses during infections.[1]
The Lung Microbiome: Lung and Brain Disease[edit | edit source]
The lung microbiome includes bacteria, archaea, fungi, protozoa, and viruses. In disease state (such as chronic lung disease or lung cancer), the microbial homeostasis is disrupted and changes occur in the microbial community. The lung microbiome may well play an important role in contributing to the occurrence and development of lung diseases and diseases originating in the central nervous system. eg an close relationship exists between the lung microbiome and multiple sclerosis. Additionally the role of the lung microbiome in brain diseases (eg Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, intracerebral hemorrhage) need to be researched. As known the gut microbiota is able to influence brain function through eg metabolites originating from the microbiota. Wuith this in mind it is thought that the lung microbiota may affect the brains' health .[2]
