Warning to pay more attention to fungal allergic asthma in children

Asthma is a global problem that affects over 300 million people in the world. The main reason of asthma is allergy and atopy. Asthmatic patients are sensitized to allergens that can be resulting asthma attacks. Fungi as an allergen can be sensitized atopic people and present a severe asthma. Fungi have been found in water-damaged homes of asthmatic patients. Allergic asthma is associated with exposure to fungal contamination in building that fungal exposure is both outside and indoors. This sensitization could be associated with high asthma severity, reduced lung function, morbidity and mortality of patients, especially in pediatric asthma form. Fungal fragments and Spores could be found indoors what origins are from fungi present outdoors. Most fungi possess diverse allergens and are metabolic products secreted outside the organism or cytoplasmic and structural components released on lysis of the fungi. Sporulation is largely determined by temperature, humidity, and moisture. So, seasonal fluctuations and geographic region have main role in determination of sporulation
