The role of fungus in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis

imagePurpose of review The etiologic role of fungi in chronic rhinosinusitis remains controversial. The purpose of this review is to further our understanding of molecular immunologic pathways activated by fungi and clinical trials of antifungals in severe subtypes of asthma and allergic fungal rhinosinusitis. Recent findings Various fungal components such as protease and chitin are capable of eliciting a type 2 innate and adaptive immune response. However, definitive studies on the etiologic role of fungi in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is dependent on the development of a fungi-induced murine model of CRS. Short of this model, extrapolations of observations and results from clinical trials in fungi-induced asthma subtypes support a key role of fungi in the pathophysiology of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and possibly other CRS endotypes. Summary Fungi plays a key role in the pathophysiology of several subtypes of chronic inflammatory respiratory diseases. However, a fungi-induced murine model of CRS is needed to explicitly investigate the molecular pathways and potential therapeutic targets.
