This review systematically concludes the interaction between microbiota and immunity. We introduce six phyla: Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Fusobacteria, and Verrucomicrobia. We also elucidate molecular mechanisms, biological functions, diseases, and new therapeutic opportunities between microbiota and immunity. .

Alveolar macrophages (AMs)—the most numerous immune cells of the lung—respond to viral infections by secreting cytokines to summon other immune cells. We investigated whether AMs recognize SARS‐CoV‐2 proteins and how they respond. AMs did not sense spike protein but did recognize envelope protein via the pattern recognition receptors TLR2 and TLR4 ...
