There are rising evidences of the human microbiome as a potentially influential player that is actively engaged in shaping the pathogenetic processes and other unresolved issues both in asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases, particularly of the airways. The biological components such as microbiome in inhaled air can induce immune dysfunction and inflammation, leading to inflammatory pulmonary disorders such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Microbe-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) with biologically active information or functions can reprogram their respective target cells and EV may have a role for the development of asthma and COPD. To evaluate the role of microbe-derived EV in the pathogenesis of asthma and COPD and its role in diagnosis, the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement method was used for the study. An electronic search was performed using PubMed, PubMed Central, and Embase up to 2020. EVs serve as an intercellular transporter of miRNAs for cell-to-cell communication in the lungs. Bacteria-derived EVs have distinctive characteristics in the lungs of patients with asthma and COPD compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, bacterial EV IgG antibody titers in serum were significantly higher in patients with asthma and COPD than in healthy controls, suggesting that antibacterial EV antibodies titers can be used as a diagnostic tool for lung disease. Taken together, microbial EVs and miRNAs have important roles in the pathogenesis of asthma and COPD and they can provide novel diagnostic biomarkers for asthma and COPD.
