RESUMEN
Introduction: Commensal bacteria have always played a significant role in the maintenance of health and disease but are being unravelled only recently. Studies suggest that the nasal microbiome has a significant role in the development of various disease conditions. Search engines were used for searching articles having a nasal microbiome and disease correlation. In olfactory dysfunction, dysbiosis of the microbiome may have a significant role to play in the pathogenesis. The nasal microbiome influences the phenotype of CRS and is also capable of modulating the immune response and plays a role in polyp formation. Microbiome dysbiosis has a pivotal role in the development of Allergic Rhinitis; but, yet known how is this role played. The nasal microbiome has a close association with the severity and phenotype of asthma. They contribute significantly to the onset, severity, and development of asthma. The nasal microbiome has a significant impact on the immunity and protection of its host. The nasal microbiome has been a stimulus in the development of Otitis Media and its manifestations. Studies suggest that the resident nasal microbiome is responsible for the initiation of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's Disease.Materials and Methods: Literature search from PubMed, Medline, and Google with the Mesh terms: nasal microbiome AND diseases. Conclusion: With increasing evidence on the role of the nasal microbiome on various diseases, it would be interesting to see how this microbiome can be modulated by pro/pre/post biotics to prevent a disease or the severity of illness.
