Cigarette smoke alters inflammatory genes and the extracellular matrix - investigations on viable sections of peripheral human lungs

Helena Obernolte et al.

Summary: Research findings suggest that exposure to cigarette smoke and lipopolysaccharide induces significant protein and gene expression responses in human lung tissue ex vivo, indicating that COPD may begin early in smoking history.

Toxic Metals in Liquid and Aerosol from Pod-Type Electronic Cigarettes

Naudia Gray et al.

Summary: High-quality and accurate data on metals in electronic nicotine delivery systems are crucial. The concentrations of chromium, nickel, copper, zinc, cadmium, tin and lead were analyzed in liquid and aerosol from popular pod-based devices. The results showed significant variation in metal levels across different manufacturers, brands and packages.

Assessment of inhalation toxicity of cigarette smoke and aerosols from flavor mixtures: 5-week study in A/J mice

Ee Tsin Wong et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the inhalation toxicity potential of flavor mixtures and compares it to cigarette smoke exposure. The findings suggest that exposure to flavor aerosols has minimal effects on lung inflammation, but causes slight adaptive changes in the larynx and nasal epithelia. In contrast, exposure to cigarette smoke results in lung inflammation and moderate-to-severe changes in the nose, larynx, and trachea epithelia.

Vegetable glycerin e-cigarette aerosols cause airway inflammation and ion channel dysfunction

Michael D. Kim et al.

Summary: This study found that VG-containing e-cigarette aerosols can reduce mucociliary function and induce inflammation in the airway. Similar results were observed in both animal models and cell cultures. Therefore, VG e-cigarette aerosols may potentially cause harm to the respiratory system.

M. P. Ween et al.

Summary: The study found that the flavorant profile of E-liquids has different effects on respiratory cells and alveolar macrophages, which may lead to increased apoptosis of bronchial epithelial cells, impaired phagocytic function of alveolar macrophages, and alterations in airway cytokines.

Exploring in vitro to in vivo extrapolation for exposure and health impacts of e-cigarette flavor mixtures

Xiaoqing Chang et al.

Summary: The study found that in vitro assay selection has a greater impact on exposure estimates in in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) than modeling approaches. Higher exposure estimates were needed to obtain in vivo plasma levels corresponding to in vitro assay data when using cytotoxicity assays, while the range of exposure estimates became wider when using mechanistic assays.

Electronic Cigarettes and Alternative Methods of Vaping

Humberto Choi et al.

Summary: The outbreak of e-cigarette or vaping-associated acute lung injury cases in 2019 brought attention to vaping, which involves inhaling heated aerosols containing nicotine or tetrahydrocannabinol. While physicians often associate vaping with e-cigarette devices, the use of alternative methods such as dabbing and dripping for aerosol inhalation is increasingly common. The health impact of these alternative methods remains poorly understood and may go unrecognized due to lack of familiarity among clinicians.

Electronic cigarette aerosols induce oxidative stress-dependent cell death and NF-κB mediated acute lung inflammation in mice

Tiancong Ma et al.

Summary: The use of e-cigarettes is associated with acute lung injury in the United States, with toxicity partly attributed to reactive oxygen species and aldehydes generated during aerosolization. Cell and animal studies show that e-cigarette samples induce oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cell death.
