Abstract:
The lung microbiome is a diverse mucosal environment that has been shown to be implicated in the pathogenesis of various chronic lung diseases including insterstitial lung diseases (ILD) such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). ILD is a well-established manifestation of several types of autoimmune diseases. This review will highlight recent work exploring the role of the lung microbiome in the pathogenesis of autoimmune-related ILD.
