In mammalian species, the first days after birth are an important period for survival and the rates of mortality before weaning are high. In pigs, the perinatal deaths average 20% of the litter, with important economic and societal consequences. Among the factors influencing piglet survival at birth...

Bisphenol A (BPA) is used in the plastic industry as the monomer of polycarbonates and epoxy resins. Heat and changes in pH conditions lead to its leakage from the plastics in which it is incorporated. This largely contributes to the widespread exposure of the general population to this environmenta...

Smoking cessation is the most effective measure for reducing the risk of smoking-related diseases but switching to less harmful products (modified-risk tobacco products) can be an alternative for smokers who would otherwise not quit. In an 18-month chronic carcinogenicity/toxicity study in A/J mice ...

Along the trachea-bronchial tree, including the small airway region, cigarette smoke exposure induces inflammation, which can exacerbate the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The small airway region is known as the primary location of airway blockage in COPD and asthma. Th...

The A/J mouse is highly susceptible to lung tumor induction and has been widely used as a screening system in carcinogenicity testing and chemoprevention studies. However, the A/J mouse model has several disadvantages. Most notably, it develops tumors spontaneously. Moreover, there is a considerable...

This study reports a comparative assessment of the biological impact of a heated tobacco aerosol from the tobacco heating system (THS) 2.2 and smoke from a combustible 3R4F cigarette. Human organotypic bronchial epithelial cultures were exposed to an aerosol from THS2.2 (a candidate modified-risk to...

AIM: To investigate the molecular, structural, and functional impact of aerosols from two heat-not-burn-based MRTPs, the Carbon Heated Tobacco Product (CHTP) 1.2 and Tobacco Heating System (THS) 2.2, compared with that of cigarette mainstream smoke (CS) on the cardiovascular system of ApoE-/- mice. ...

Swedish snus is a smokeless tobacco product that contains reduced levels of harmful compounds compared with cigarette smoke. In Sweden, where snus use exceeds smoking among men, relatively low rates of major smoking-related diseases have been recorded. To better understand how snus use could align w...
