Infection by pathogenic viruses results in rapid epithelial damage and significantly impacts on the condition of the upper respiratory tract, thus the effects of viral infection may induce changes in microbiota. Thus, we aimed to define the healthy microbiota and the viral pathogen-affected microbiota...
We speculate that this is secondary to chronic respiratory abnormalities during sleep. Upper airway responses improved after T&A but did not reach normal levels, despite normalization of polysomnographic results. This sug- gests that, although T&A is clearly beneficial in resolving clinical sleep-...

[11]. This clinical phenotype might be explained by systemic broad cross-neutralizing antibodies combined with a novel and distinct upper respiratory tract immune signature in B.1.214.2-infected nursing home residents, as compared to other high-fatality (> 10%) post-vaccine outbreaks with Delta...
In contrast, a single intranasal dose of ChAd-SARS-CoV-2-S induces high levels of neutralizing antibodies, promotes systemic and mucosal immunoglobulin A (IgA) and T cell responses, and almost entirely prevents SARS-CoV-2 infection in both the upper and lower respiratory tracts. Intranasal ...

FIG. 5 is a side-view diagram of respiratory epithelium, illustrating a process of squamous metaplasia of columnar cells to squamous cells. The mucus producing cells are inactivated by undergoing cell metaplasia, the switching of cells from one type to another. In the presence of stimulants, the...
