Lung Microbiome Diversity, Infection Dynamics, and Microbe-Mediated Cross-Protection. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenThe protective role of the lung microbiome in maintaining respiratory health by promoting immune homeostasis, pathogen exclusion, and barrier integrity. Diverse microbial communities regulate immune maturation, enhance epithelial defenses, and contribute to antiviral responses, collectively preventing pathogen colonization and sustaining a balanced ...
