Abstract:
With the development of the new generation of 16S rRNA sequencing technology and metagenomics, the relationship between the microbiota and bronchial asthma (asthma for short) has been increasingly recognized, and has become a research hotspot in the pathogenesis of asthma. It is estimated that more than 10,000 different microbial species inhabit the human body, affecting nutrition, metabolism and immune function of body. The imbalance of microbial flora leads to the disturbance of the internal environment in the body, which causes diseases such as asthma. Asthma is determined by both genetic and environmental effects, and the microbiota plays an important role in the pathogenesis, phenotype and disease severity of asthma. This paper reviews the role of different microbiota in the development of asthma.
