Abstract: The process of vaping may increase the cytotoxic effects of e-cigarette liquid (ECL) and increase the negative effects on alveolar macrophages yet many studies have used only unvaped fluid. We sought to examine the potential… read more here.

Abstract: M. Caruso and co-workers raise several points related to our electronic cigarette (EC) study [1]. First, they suggest that we generated EC vapour (ECV) under “extreme” experimental conditions, which could lead to overheating and thermal… read more here.

Abstract: E-cigarette vapour contains free radicals with the potential to induce oxidative stress. Since oxidative stress in airway cells increases platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) expression, and PAFR is co-opted by pneumococci to adhere to host cells,… read more here.

Abstract: Cigarette consumption negatively impacts bone quality and is a risk-factor for the development of multiple bone associated disorders, due to the highly vascularised structure of bone being exposed to systemic factors. However, the impact on… read more here.
