The role of antimicrobial defense factors in the pathogenesis of immune disorders in deviated septum

Abstract

The article presents the data from Russian and foreign literature on the state of humoral and cellular factors of local antimicrobial protection of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in the pathogenesis of immune disorders in deviated septum. The role of cellular, humoral factors, and interreceptor interactions of cells of the respiratory, glandular epithelium, phagocytes, lymphocytes in pathological conditions of the nasal mucosa and paranasal sinuses was analyzed. The role of immune mechanisms in the development of pathological reactions in deviated septum is shown. The presented review will expand the understanding of the role of antimicrobial factors in the pathogenesis of immune disorders in deviated septum.
