Chinese green tea consumption reduces oxidative stress, inflammation and tissues damage in smoke exposed rats
Objective(s):One cause of cigarette smoking is oxidative stress that may alter the cellular antioxidant defense system, induce apoptosis in lung tissue, inflammation and damage in liver, lung, and kidney. It has been shown that Chinese green tea (CGT) (Lung Chen Tea) has higher antioxidant property than black tea. In this paper, we will explore the preventive effect of CGT on cigarette smoke-in...
متن کاملThirdhand smoke causes DNA damage in human cells.
Exposure to thirdhand smoke (THS) is a newly described health risk. Evidence supports its widespread presence in indoor environments. However, its genotoxic potential, a critical aspect in risk assessment, is virtually untested. An important characteristic of THS is its ability to undergo chemical transformations during aging periods, as demonstrated in a recent study showing that sorbed nicoti...
متن کاملCigarette smoke inhalation and lung damage in smoking volunteers.
Cigarette smoking is the dominant risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but only 10-15% of smokers develop the condition. Risk does not relate closely to cumulative cigarette consumption, perhaps because smokers vary in the degree and depth of smoke inhalation. This study examined the role of smoke inhalation in the development of COPD. Eighty current smokers and 20 lifet...
متن کاملOxidative damage in human gingival fibroblasts exposed to cigarette smoke.
Cigarette smoke, a complex mixture of over 7000 chemicals, contains many components capable of eliciting oxidative stress, which may induce smoking-related disorders, including oral cavity diseases. In this study, we investigated the effects of whole (mainstream) cigarette smoke on human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). Cells were exposed to various puffs (0.5-12) of whole cigarette smoke and oxida...
متن کاملSecondary cigarette smoke causes DNA damage: susceptibility for disease development.
disinfection protocols must be adhered to. Special attention should be given to resuscitation bags, suction, oxygen and humidification apparatus. Care of IV lines and catheters and precautions during each invasion episode like intubation, suctioning and IV injections (care bundles) is important [8,9]. Admission criteria to NICU need to be stringently defined. The number of injections, IV lines,...
