Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses the link between indoor air dampness and respiratory health issues, highlighting that mold exposure, especially through spores and hyphal fragments, may trigger proinflammatory responses that contribute to diseases.
  • It emphasizes the importance of experimental studies in understanding how mold particles cause inflammation and damage in the airways, noting that hyphal fragments often have a higher potential to induce these effects than spores.
  • The review suggests that future research should focus on assessing the toxicity and inflammatory potential of indoor mold particles, particularly hyphal fragments, to better understand their role in indoor air-related respiratory diseases.]
