This study provides evidence of diverse fungal communities in sarcoidosis patients' blood and respiratory specimens, with potential immunomodulatory implications. Our findings integrate with existing epidemiologic and immunologic evidence highlighting fungi as credible antigenic drivers in sarcoidosis and suggest directions for future functional studies exploring fungal-host interactions in disease pathogenesis.
