<unk>  lung<unk> s include the pneumoconioses (interstitial lung<unk> s), hypersensitivity pneumonitis, bronchiolitis, byssinosis, and<unk>  asthma. Pneumoconiosis is an interstitial lung<unk>  caused by the accumulation of different dust particles in the alveolar space. As the particles accumulate, the body's elimination mechanisms begin to fail, resulting in activation of chemotactic factors that exacerbate the inflammatory response, and subsequently lead to fibrosis. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis or extrinsic allergic alveolitis and its subcategories of,  bronchiolitis, byssinosis, and<unk>  asthma are all part of the respiratory systems’ over reactivity towards inhalants.
