However, a major bottleneck has been that>70% of human proteins/genomic regions are 'undruggable' by the above-mentioned approaches. Many of these proteins constitute essential drug targets against complex multifactorial diseases like cancer, immunological disorders, and neurological diseases.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the differences in pulmonary fungal and bacterial microbiota between sarcoidosis patients and healthy controls, finding notable variations.
  • Significant findings include that Aspergillus was predominant in the samples from sarcoidosis patients, while bacterial diversity was lower compared to controls.
  • Additionally, lower levels of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) were observed in sarcoidosis patients, suggesting a potential link between the microbiota and the immune system in this condition.
