Beyond the WHO Priority Toxicants: A Systematic Review of Harmful and Potentially Harmful Constituents in IQOS Aerosols [PDF]

Toxics
Heated tobacco products (HTPs) generate an inhalable aerosol by heating tobacco instead of burning it as conventional cigarettes do. Although several harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) are generally reduced compared with conventional ...

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

The use of human induced pluripotent stem cells to screen for developmental toxicity potential indicates reduced potential for non-combusted products, when compared to cigarettes

Current Research in Toxicology, 2020
devTOX quickPredict (devTOXqP) is a metabolomics biomarker-based assay that utilises human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to screen for potential early stage embryonic developmental toxicity in vitro.
