Toxic elements in tobacco and in cigarette smoke: inflammation and sensitization [PDF]
Metallomics, 2011 Biochemically and pathologically, there is strong evidence for both atopic and nonatopic airway sensitization, hyperresponsiveness, and inflammation as a consequence of exposure to tobacco mainstream or sidestream smoke particulate. There is growing evidence for the relation between exposure to mainstream and sidestream smoke and diseases resulting ...

The Relative Toxicity of Substituted Phenols Reported in Cigarette Mainstream Smoke [PDF]
Toxicological Sciences, 2002 Cigarette mainstream smoke (MS) contains a number of structurally diverse substituted phenols. Recent quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) studies on phenols show that substituted phenols with electron-releasing groups can form potentially toxic phenoxyl-free radicals.

Advanced Materials Design for Adsorption of Toxic Substances in Cigarette Smoke
Advanced Science, 2023 AbstractCigarettes, despite being economically important legal consumer products, are highly addictive and harmful, particularly to the respiratory system. Tobacco smoke is a complex mixture containing over 7000 chemical compounds, 86 of which are identified to have “sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity” in either animal or human tests. Thus, tobacco

Cigarette Smoking, miR-27b Downregulation, and Peripheral Artery Disease: Insights into the Mechanisms of Smoking Toxicity [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021 Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for the development of peripheral artery disease (PAD), although the proatherosclerotic mediators of cigarette smoking are not entirely known. We explored whether circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) are dysregulated in cigarette smokers and associated with the presence of PAD.
