The microbiota of the respiratory tract: gatekeeper to respiratory health [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2017 The respiratory tract is a complex organ system that is responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The human respiratory tract spans from the nostrils to the lung alveoli and is inhabited by niche-specific communities of bacteria.

Decoding the Distribution of Glycan Receptors for Human-Adapted Influenza A Viruses in Ferret Respiratory Tract [PDF]
, 2011 Ferrets are widely used as animal models for studying influenza A viral pathogenesis and transmissibility. Human-adapted influenza A viruses primarily target the upper respiratory tract in humans (infection of the lower respiratory tract is observed less

Tissue resident memory T cells in the respiratory tract
Mucosal Immunology, 2021 Owing to their capacity to rapidly spread across the population, airborne pathogens represent a significant risk to global health. Indeed, several of the past major global pandemics have been instigated by respiratory pathogens.

The Diagnostic Value of Metagenomic Next–Generation Sequencing in Lower Respiratory Tract Infection
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Lower respiratory tract infections are associated with high morbidity and mortality and significant clinical harm. Due to the limited ability of traditional pathogen detection methods, anti-infective therapy is mostly empirical.
