Switching behavior and changes in smoking behavior by menthol cigarette preference and menthol heated tobacco product use among adults in the United States who smoke cigarettes: an actual use study [PDF]

Harm Reduction Journal
Background Heated tobacco products (HTPs) deliver nicotine with significantly lower toxicant exposure relative to combustible cigarettes. HTPs may serve as viable tobacco harm reduction options for adults who smoke but are not able or interested in ...

Mimicking cigarette smoke exposure to assess cutaneous toxicity [PDF]

Toxicology in Vitro, 2020
Cigarette smoke stands among the most toxic environmental pollutants and is composed of thousands of chemicals including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Despite restrict cigarette smoking ban in indoor or some outdoor locations, the risk of non-smokers to be exposed to environmental cigarette smoke is not yet eliminated.

The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Attenuates Acute Cigarette Smoke-Induced Airway Neutrophilia Independent of the Dioxin Response Element

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Cigarette smoke is a prevalent respiratory toxicant that remains a leading cause of death worldwide. Cigarette smoke induces inflammation in the lungs and airways that contributes to the development of diseases such as lung cancer and chronic obstructive

Evaluation of behavioural, chemical, toxicological and clinical studies of a tobacco heated product glo™ and the potential for bridging from a foundational dataset to new product iterations

Toxicology Reports, 2022
Background: Tobacco Heating Products (THPs) are tobacco products that heat rather than burn tobacco with temperatures less than 350 °C. Because of this operating principle, they produce substantially fewer and lower levels of tobacco smoke toxicants than

Biological effects of cigarette smoke in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]

, 2012
The goal of the present study was to determine whether treatment with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) induces cell loss, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis in primary human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Primary cultured

Determination of toxic carbonyl compounds in cigarette smoke [PDF]

Environmental Toxicology, 2006
Toxic carbonyl compounds, including formaldehyde, malonaldehyde, and glyoxal, formed in mainstream cigarette smoke were quantified by derivatization-solid phase extraction-gas chromatography methods. Cigarette smoke from 14 commercial brands and one reference (2R1F) was drawn into a separatory funnel containing aqueous phosphate-buffered saline ...

Effect of glycerol concentration on levels of toxicants emissions from water-pipe tobacco smoking (WTS)

BMC Public Health, 2023
Glycerol, flavorings and sweeteners constitute approximately 70% of water-pipe tobacco smoking (WTS) mixtures. Tobacco mixture combustion produces smoke toxins (e.g.
