Abstract



Allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma (AS) are two of the most common chronic respiratory diseases and a major public health concern. Multiple studies have demonstrated the role of the nasal bacteriome in AR and AS, but little is known about the airway mycobiome and its potential association to airway inflammatory diseases. Here we used the internal transcriber spacers (ITS) 1 and 2 and high-throughput sequencing to characterize the nasal mycobiome of 339 individuals with AR, AR with asthma (ARAS), AS and healthy controls (CT). Seven to ten of the 14 most abundant fungal genera (Malassezia, Alternaria, Cladosporium, Penicillium, Wallemia, Rhodotorula, Sporobolomyces, Naganishia, Vishniacozyma, and Filobasidium) in the nasal cavity differed significantly (p <= 0.049) between AS, AR or ARAS, and CT. However, none of the same genera varied significantly between the three respiratory disease groups. The nasal mycobiomes of AR and ARAS patients showed the highest intra-group diversity, while CT showed the lowest. Alpha-diversity indices of microbial richness and evenness only varied significantly (p <= 0.024) between AR or ARAS and CT, while all disease groups showed significant differences (p <= 0.0004) in microbial structure (i.e., beta-diversity indices) when compared to CT samples. Thirty metabolic pathways (PICRUSt2) were differentially abundant (Wald's test) between AR or ARAS and CT patients, but only three of them associated with 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide (AIR) biosynthesis were over abundant (log2 Fold Change >0.75) in the ARAS group. AIR has been associated to fungal pathogenesis in plants. Spiec-Easi fungal networks varied among groups, but AR and ARAS showed more similar interactions among their members than with those in the CT mycobiome; this suggests chronic respiratory allergic diseases may disrupt fungal connectivity in the nasal cavity. This study contributes valuable fungal data and results to understand the relationships between the nasal mycobiome and allergy-related conditions. It demonstrates for the first time that the nasal mycobiota varies during health and allergic rhinitis (with and without comorbid asthma) and reveals specific taxa, metabolic pathways and fungal interactions that may relate to chronic airway disease.
