Exposure time and ventricular remodeling induced by tobacco smoke exposure in rats
(2008-03-01)
Background: We investigated the effects of length of exposure to tobacco smoke on the cardiac remodeling process induced by exposure to cigarette smoke in rats. Material/Methods: Rats were separated into 4 groups: nonsmoking ...
Exposure time and ventricular remodeling induced by tobacco smoke exposure in rats
(Int Scientific Literature, Inc, 2008-03-01)
Background: We investigated the effects of length of exposure to tobacco smoke on the cardiac remodeling process induced by exposure to cigarette smoke in rats.Material/Methods: Rats were separated into 4 groups: nonsmoking ...
Influence of Time and Frequency of Passive Smoking Exposure on Mucociliary Clearance and the Autonomic Nervous System
(Daedalus Enterprises Inc, 2016-04-01)
BACKGROUND: There are still gaps in the knowledge regarding the damage to mucociliary and autonomous systems from passive exposure to cigarette smoke. Also, the influence of the frequency and duration of exposure on these ...
Tobacco Smoke Induces Ventricular Remodeling Associated with an Increase in NADPH Oxidase Activity
(Karger, 2011-01-01)
Background: Recent studies have assessed the direct effects of smoking on cardiac remodeling and function. However, the mechanisms of these alterations remain unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate de role of ...
Aldosterone is not Involved in the Ventricular Remodeling Process Induced by Tobacco Smoke Exposure
(Karger, 2012-01-01)
Background/Aims: Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade with a mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist has not yet been studied in exposure to tobacco smoke (TS) models. Thus, this study investigated the role of ...
Occupational secondhand smoke is the main determinant of hair nicotine concentrations in bar and restaurant workers
(Elsevier, 2014)
Objective
To evaluate the relative contribution of occupational vs. non-occupational secondhand tobacco smoke exposure to overall hair nicotine concentrations in non-smoking bar and restaurant employees.
Method
We ...
Pentoxifylline Attenuates Cardiac Remodeling Induced by Tobacco Smoke Exposure
(Arquivos Brasileiros Cardiologia, 2016-05-01)
Background: Tobacco smoke exposure is an important risk factor for cardiac remodeling. Under this condition, inflammation, oxidative stress, energy metabolism abnormalities, apoptosis, and hypertrophy are present. ...
β-carotene attenuates the paradoxical effect of tobacco smoke on the mortality of rats after experimental myocardial infarction
(2005-09-01)
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of exposure to tobacco smoke (ETS) in rats that were or were not supplemented with dietary β-carotene (BC), on ventricular remodeling and survival after myocardial ...
