Smoking promotes enhanced colonization of the upper and the lower respiratory tract with potential pathogens, which increases the susceptibility to pulmonary infections. Here, we examined whether smoke exposure favors colonization of the upper-respiratory tract with bacterial pathogens such as Streptococcus pneumoniae and translocation of bacteria into the lung. To investigate this, mice were exposed to cigarette sm…
