Comparative analysis of the bronchoalveolar microbiome in Portuguese patients with different chronic lung disorders
Abstract The lung is inhabited by a diverse microbiome that originates from the oropharynx by a mechanism of micro-aspiration. Its bacterial biomass is usually low; however, this condition shifts in lung cancer (LC), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). T...
