In vitro toxicology approaches have evolved, from a focus on the molecular changes within a cell to understanding of toxicity-related mechanisms that simulate the in vivo environment. The recent development of three dimensional (3-D) organotypic nasal epithelial culture models offer a physiologicall...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex pulmonary disorder primarily induced by cigarette smoking, and characterized by persistent airflow limitation. The mouse represents an important model for studying COPD pathologies such as lung emphysema. In this respect, a number of mechanis...

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 development of reduced-risk products is aimed at providing adult smokers, who are unable to quit, with alternatives to cigarettes that present less risk of harm and smoking-related disease. The use of flavors in the development of these reduced-risk products fulfils an important role in product ...

Cigarette smoking causes serious diseases, including lung cancer, heart disease, and emphysema. While cessation remains the most effective approach to minimize smoking-related disease, alternative non-combustible tobacco-derived nicotine containing products may reduce disease risks among those unabl...

Cigarette smoke (CS) has been reported to increase predisposition to oral cancer and is also recognized as a risk factor for many conditions including periodontal diseases, gingivitis, and other benign mucosal disorders. Smoking cessation remains the most effective approach for minimizing the risk o...

In the context of tobacco harm-reduction strategy, the potential reduced impact of electronic cigarette (EC) exposure should be evaluated relative to the impact of cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. We conducted a series of in vitro studies to compare the biological impact of an acute exposure to aeroso...

Smoking of combustible cigarettes has a major impact on human health. Using a systems toxicology approach in a model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (C57BL/6 mice), we assessed the health consequences in mice of smoke derived from a prototype modified risk tobacco product (pMRTP) as compare...

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory properties of nicotine and anatabine in a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) mouse model of ulcerative colitis (UC). Methods: C57BL/6 male mice (10 groups with 8 animals each) were orally administered nicotine at a concentration of 5 or ...
