Abstract
Infection of the respiratory system is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality world-wide [1]. Respiratory tract infection, including croup, tracheobronchitis, bronchiolitis and pneumonia, are significant clinical problems. The increasing number of multidrug-resistant microbes has made the treatment of these infections much more difficult [1]. To further improve therapies for respiratory infection, we need to learn more about the host defence in the lung.
