Sidestream cigarette smoke exposure effects on baroreflex in adult rats.
BACKGROUND It has been evidenced in the literature that exposure to cigarette smoke causes hypertension in rats; however, it has not been demonstrated if the baroreflex function is impaired before the animal becomes hypertensive. OBJECTIVE We evaluated short-term effects of sidestream cigarette smoke (SSCS) exposure on baroreflex function in Wistar normotensive rats. METHODS Rats were expos...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) in SSCS play an important role in the pathogenesis of a wide range of diseases. Interleukin-6 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine and is closely linked with pathology in cardiovascular disease and conditions that have an inflammatory base. Exposure to SSCS thro...
متن کاملInhalation of sidestream cigarette smoke accelerates development of arteriosclerotic plaques.
BACKGROUND Environmental tobacco smoke has been blamed for approximately 40,000 excess deaths from heart disease annually in the United States.

Environmental tobacco smoke is composed mainly of aged and diluted sidestream smoke but also contains 15% to 20% exhaled mainstream smoke. Carcinogens,...
متن کاملThe combined effects of sidestream smoke extracts and glycated serum albumin on endothelial cells and platelets
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that sidestream tobacco smoke extracts would inhibit the culture of endothelial cells and enhance platelet aggregation under diabetic vascular conditions. Sidestream tobacco smoke and advanced glycation end products are known cardiovascular risk factors and we aimed to determine the combined interaction between these two risk facto...
