Interferons are key factors that ramp up the body’s response to viruses and help eliminate cells that are infected. - #Bacteroidetes have a specific molecule on their cell surface called a glycolipid that causes intestinal immune cells to release antiviral interferons. [1.2] [#Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis] - #Sphingomonas was more abundant in patients with eCRSwNP than in HCs. - #Sphingomonas species have been associated with increased airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine. - Glycolipid antigens from #Sphingomonas species are believed to induce airway hyperresponsiveness in mice through activation of invariant natural killer T cells in an IL-33–dependent manner. - #Sphingomonas abundance was correlated with high absolute tissue eosinophil counts in patients with eCRSwNP.References Notes[ ]
