Mouse model validity for studying the impact of tobacco smoke on the human gut microbiota assessed via <i>in silico</i> and experimental approaches
Considering the high inter-individual variation in humans and the well-controlled conditions in mice, our results suggest that mice, despite the identified limitations, most likely represent a suitable model for studying specific processes, such as stress responses, in the context of tobacco smoke exposure and its impact on the microbiota.
