Dynamic changes in innate immune and T cell function and composition at the nasal mucosa across the human lifespan

J. Reine, B. F. Carniel, C. Solorzano, E. Mitsi, S. Pojar, E. Nikolau, E. L. German, A. D. Hyder-Wright, H. Hill, C. Hales, L. Brown, V. Horsley, L. Hughes, S. Zaidi, V. Connor, , S. P. Jochems

This study examines age-related changes in nasal mucosal immune composition and function, finding reduced granulocytes and T cells in young children and older adults, and links pneumococcal colonization to inflammation.

Minimally-invasive nasal sampling in children offers accurate pneumococcal colonization detection

E. Nikolaou, A. Blizard, S. Pojar, E. Mitsi, E. L. German, J. Reine, H. Hill, P. S. McNamara, A. M. Collins, D. M. Ferreira, S. P. Jochems

This study shows that nasal lining fluid filter strips provide equal pneumococcal detection sensitivity to deep nasopharyngeal swabs in children, offering a less unpleasant alternative.

Inflammation induced by influenza virus impairs innate control of human pneumococcal carriage

S. P. Jochems, F. Marcon, B. F. Carniel, M. Holloway, E. Mitsi, E. Smith, J. F. Gritzfeld, C. Solorzano, J. Reine, S. Pojar, E. Nikolaou, E. L. German, A. Hyder-Wright, H. Hill, C. Hales, , D. M. Ferreira

This study shows that influenza virus infection impairs innate immune responses to pneumococcal carriage in the nose, increasing bacterial density through cytokine-driven mechanisms.
