Emerging evidence from longitudinal birth cohorts and multi-omics studies reveals that early-life microbial colonization patterns in both the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts play a crucial role in shaping immune trajectories and influencing asthma susceptibility. This expert review highlights the findings from pivotal studies that associate dysbiosis in the gut and airway microbiota with asthma development and its diverse phenotypic manifestations. Reduced abundance of immunomodulatory genera such as\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Bifidobacterium<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Faecalibacterium<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Lachnospira<\/jats:italic>\n                    in the gut has been consistently associated with increased asthma risk. In the airways, increased colonization by potentially pathogenic taxa, including\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Moraxella<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Haemophilus<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Streptococcus<\/jats:italic>\n                    , correlates with viral respiratory infections and persistent wheezing. Microbiome diversity patterns also differ between asthma phenotypes: eosinophilic asthma typically features a community profile closer to healthy individuals, while neutrophilic asthma is marked by enrichment of pro-inflammatory bacterial species. Moreover, protective genera such as\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Dolosigranulum<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Corynebacterium<\/jats:italic>\n                    in the upper airways are associated with lower risk of asthma and reduced respiratory infections. Elucidating these microbiome-mediated mechanisms holds promise for the development of targeted microbiota-based strategies for asthma prevention and phenotype-specific therapeutic interventions. The present review unpacks these localized microbial patterns and their mechanistic implications for asthma development, severity, and endotypic variation. Finally, unraveling the microbiome\u2013asthma axis from airway and gut microbial communities also has implications for new ways of thinking personalized medicine in the future.\n
