Longitudinal stability in cigarette smokers of urinary biomarkers of exposure to the toxicants acrylonitrile and acrolein. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
The urinary metabolites cyanoethyl mercapturic acid (CEMA) and 3-hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid (3-HPMA) have been widely used as biomarkers of exposure to acrylonitrile and acrolein, respectively, but there are no published data on their consistency ...

Ensemble of rankers for efficient gene signature extraction in smoke exposure classification

BMC Bioinformatics, 2018
Background System toxicology aims at understanding the mechanisms used by biological systems to respond to toxicants. Such understanding can be leveraged to assess the risk of chemicals, drugs, and consumer products in living organisms.

Waterpipe Tobacco Smoking and Cigarette Smoking: A Direct Comparison of Toxicant Exposure and Subjective Effects [PDF]

Nicotine & Tobacco Research, 2010
Waterpipe tobacco smoking is increasing worldwide and is believed by many users to be less harmful and addictive than cigarette smoking. In fact, waterpipe tobacco and cigarette smoke contain many of the same chemicals, and users are exposed to the dependence-producing drug nicotine as well as other smoke toxicants.

Oro-Respiratory Dysbiosis and Its Modulatory Effect on Lung Mucosal Toxicity during Exposure or Co-Exposure to Carbon Nanotubes and Cigarette Smoke

Nanomaterials
The oro-respiratory microbiome is impacted by inhalable exposures such as smoking and has been associated with respiratory health conditions. However, the effect of emerging toxicants, particularly engineered nanoparticles, alone or in co-exposure with ...

Heated tobacco product aerosol emission compared to cigarette smoke: A scoping review. [PDF]

Toxicol Rep
Heated tobacco products (HTPs) are promoted as reduced-risk alternatives to combustible tobacco cigarettes (TCs), yet toxicant exposure reduction and associated health benefits remain uncertain.

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.

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

Tobacco Prevention and Cessation, 2023
Introduction Glycerin, flavorings and sweeteners collectively constitute up to 70% of water-pipe tobacco smoking (WTS) mixtures. The combustion of such ingredients produces smoke particulates that are known toxins and carcinogens including nicotine ...

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

Risk assessment of toxicants on WHO TobReg priority list in mainstream cigarette smoke using human-smoked yields of Korean smokers

, 2021
Recently, the World Health Organization Study Group on Tobacco Product Regulation (WHO TobReg) announced a priority list of 38 toxicants among the more than 7000 chemicals found in cigarette smoke, building upon previous lists of toxicants in cigarette ...
