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

Secondhand Smoke Exposure Impairs Ion Channel Function and Contractility of Mesenteric Arteries [PDF]

Function, 2021
Cigarette smoke, including secondhand smoke (SHS), has significant detrimental vascular effects, but its effects on myogenic tone of small resistance arteries and the underlying mechanisms are understudied. Although it is apparent that SHS contributes to

Emissions from conventional and electronic waterpipes relative to cigarettes and a heated tobacco product [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Harms associated with the use of smoked tobacco products, including waterpipes, are due to inhalational exposure to toxicants either present in tobacco or formed during the process of combustion.

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.

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

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.

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 ...
