متن کاملSmoking, metalloproteinases, and vascular disease.
Smoking causes up to 11% of total global cardiovascular deaths. Smoking has numerous effects that may promote atherosclerosis through vascular inflammation and oxidative stress, but the pathogenesis of smoking-related cardiovascular disease remains incompletely understood. The matrix metalloproteinases, a family of endopeptidases that can degrade extracellular matrix components in both physiolo...
متن کاملSmoking and vascular risk: are all forms of smoking harmful to all types of vascular disease?
Smoking, both active and passive, is an established vascular risk factor. The present narrative review considers the effects of different forms of smoking (i.e. cannabis, cigar, pipe, smokeless tobacco and cigarette) on cardiovascular risk. Furthermore, the impact of smoking on several vascular risk factors [e.g. hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM), dyslipidaemia and haemostasis] and on vascul...
متن کاملSmoking-induced vascular disease: a new twist on an old theme.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are recognized widely as potential environmental procarcinogens and have attracted their share of attention from both funding agencies and scientists interested in biomedical research. Curiously, their potential relevance to cardiovascular disease, rather than cancer, has stirred less emotion. This imbalance of attention is reflected also in society’s res...
متن کاملBenfotiamine Counteracts Smoking-Induced Vascular Dysfunction in Healthy Smokers
Background. Smoking induces endothelial dysfunction (ED) mainly by exacerbating oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation. Benfotiamine, a thiamine prodrug with high bioavailability, prevents nicotine-induced vascular dysfunction in rats. It remained unknown whether this effect also occurs in humans. Methods. Therefore, 20 healthy volunteers (mean age: 38 years) were investigated twice, 7-10 days ...
