“… 38 ). Besides, research has shown that postpartum females with gingivitis, a symptom of which is bleeding gums, have altered abundance of numerous fungal genera compared to those with good oral health ( 39 ). The association between one's education level and their oral mycobiome is less clear; it is likely that a university degree may represent a composite variable of multiple factors that affect the oral mycobiome, including the choice of diet ( 40 ).…”

Numerous studies have examined the bacterial community residing in our oral cavity; however, information on the less dominant yet ecologically and clinically important fungal members is limited. In this study, we characterized simultaneously the oral bacterial and fungal microbial communities in a large cohort of healthy Chinese adults, examined their associations with an array of host factors, and explored potential interactions between the two microbial groups.

“…BMI in elderly subjects has also been demonstrated as a factor influencing composition, as Candida glabrata and Candida dubliniensis were associated with elderly patients of lower BMI, which may be associated with an immunocompromised status and susceptibility to candidiasis [ 12 ]. One factor studied, specific to females, has been postpartum analyses of the oral mycobiome [ 13 ]. Not only was an increase in diversity observed in the postpartum group but also in certain genera, such as Stachybotrys , Geotrichum , Talaromyces , Leucosporidium , Acremonium , Wallemia , Eupenicillium , Septoria , Zymoseptoria , Coniosporium , Phialophora , and Mycosphaerella , which were only detected in the postpartum group [ 13 ].…”

Gingivitis or dental caries further modified the composition of the genera in the postpartum group, as did preterm low-weight birth [ 13 ].…”

Although the human bacteriome and virome have gained a great deal of attention over the years, the human mycobiome has been far more neglected despite having significant value and implications in human health. In women, mycobiome profiles in breastmilk, vaginal regions, the gut, skin, and the oral cavity can provide insight into women’s health, diseases, and microbiome dysbiosis. Analyses of mycobiome composition under factors, such as health, age, diet, weight, and drug exposure (including antibiotic therapies), help to elucidate the various roles of women’s mycobiome in homeostasis, microbiome interactions (synergistic and antagonistic), and health. This review summarizes the most recent updates to mycobiome knowledge in these critical areas.

“…The most common representatives of the basal oral mycobiome originate from the phylum Ascomycota, namely the yeast-like genus Candida [ 7 , 61 , 101 , 109 , 110 ]. Less prevalent yeasts that have been reported are Aureobasidium , Saccharomyces and Pichia [ 7 , 61 , 100 , 107 , 108 ]. Some of the identified filamentous micromycetes are genera Penicillium , Cladosporium , Aspergillus and Alternaria [ 7 , 61 , 100 , 101 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 ].…”

The mycobiome is the fungal component of the human microbial ecosystem that represents only a small part of this environment but plays an essential role in maintaining homeostasis. Colonization by fungi begins immediately after birth. The initial mycobiome is influenced by the gestational age of a newborn, birth weight, delivery method and feeding method. During a human’s life, the composition of the mycobiome is further influenced by a large number of endogenous and exogenous factors. The most important factors are diet, body weight, age, sex and antibiotic and antifungal therapy. The human mycobiome inhabits the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, urogenital tract and skin. Its composition can influence the gut–brain axis through immune and non-immune mediated crosstalk systems. It also interacts with other commensals of the ecosystem through synergistic and antagonistic relationships. Moreover, colonization of the gut by opportunistic fungal pathogens in immunocompromised individuals can lead to clinically relevant disease states. Thus, the mycobiome represents an essential part of the microbiome associated with a variety of physiological and pathological processes. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the composition of the mycobiome in specific sites of the human body and its role in health and disease.
