Abstract

COVID-19
initially seen in Wuhan China in December 2019 became an epidemic very rapidly
and was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March
11, 2020. The disease presents as a serious clinical course in people with
other chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart diseases, especially immune
system problems. Functions and modulation of the immune system are extremely
important in defense against viruses. According to the results of multiple
types of research, one of the methods to boost the innate immune system is to
balance gut microbiota. Recent studies have shown that lung microbiota and gut
microbiota are interrelated and microbiota balance may be important in the
prevention of and defense against viral airway diseases. Scientists make great
effort worldwide to develop an effective treatment or vaccine against COVID-19,
but no cure or vaccine for COVID-19 has been found yet. For COVID-19 disease
innovative prophylactic approaches and treatment protocols based on functional
medicine perspective and directed towards pathophysiological mechanisms are
needed.
  It’s assumed that regulation of
gut and lung microbiota may be important in the prevention of the disease by
boosting the immune system and also may be included in treatment protocols as a
therapeutic target.
  COVID-19 pandemic
has shown once more the importance of preventive approaches like wellness,
maintenance of healthy living, immune system boosting, and modulation. Further
advanced researches are needed on subjects such as provision and use of
microbiota sources, standardization of administration of microbiota
regulating-supplementing products, and role of diet regulation in the treatment.

Covid-19 ile Mücadelede Akciğer ve Bağırsak Mikrobiyotalarının Rolü

Year 2020, Issue: Special Issue on COVID 19, 284 - 293, 20.03.2020

Abstract

İlk defa
2019 Aralık ayında Çin’in Wuhan şehrinde görülen ve kısa sürede bir salgına neden
olan COVID-19 11 Mart 2020'de Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (WHO) tarafından küresel
salgın olarak ilan edilmiştir. Hastalık özellikle bağışıklık sistemi
problemleri başta olmak üzere diyabet, kalp hastalıkları gibi diğer kronik
hastalıkları olan kişilerde ciddi bir klinik seyir göstermektedir.  
Virüslere karşı savunmada immün sistemin
fonksiyonları ve modülasyonu son derece önemlidir. Birçok araştırmanın
sonuçlarına göre, doğal immün sistemi güçlendirmenin yollarından biri de
bağırsak mikrobiyotasını dengelemektir. Son zamanlarda yapılan çalışmalar
akciğer mikrobiyotası ile bağırsak mikrobiyotasının ilişkili olduğunu ve
mikrobiyota dengesinin viral solunum yolu hastalıklarının önlenmesi ve
savunmasında önemli olabileceğini göstermektedir. COVID-19’a karşı etkin bir
tedavi ve aşı geliştirmek için tüm Dünya’da bilim adamları yoğun olarak
çalışmaktadır, ancak henüz kesin tedavisi ya da aşısı bulunamamıştır.
Covid-19
hastalığı sürecinde fonksiyonel tıp bakış açısıyla fizyopatolojik mekanizmalara
yönelik geliştirilecek yeni profilaktik yaklaşımlar ve tedavi protokollerine
ihtiyaç vardır. Bağırsak ve akciğer
mikrobiyotaların
düzenlenmesinin immün sistemi güçlendirerek korunmada önemli olabileceği, yanı
sıra tedavi protokollerinde bir tedavi hedefi olarak yer alabileceğini ileri
sürülmektedir. COVID-19 salgını, sağlıklı yaşam, sağlığın korunması,
güçlendirme ve bağışıklık sistemi modülasyonu gibi profilaktik yaklaşımların
önemini bir kez daha göstermiştir. Mikrobiyota kaynaklarının nasıl elde edilip
kullanılacağı, mikrobiyota düzenleyici-destekleyici ürünlerin uygulamasının
standardizasyonu ve beslenmenin düzenlenmesinin tedavideki rolü gibi pek çok konuda
ileri araştırmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
