Popis: | Highlights • Human coronary artery endothelial cells show a biological response to cigarette smoke. • This response was not seen following exposure to e-cigarette aerosol. • Using e-cigarettes instead of cigarettes may reduce immediate cardiovascular harms. Background It is generally acknowledged that e-cigarettes are unlikely to be as harmful as conventional cigarettes, but there is little data that quantifies their relative harms. We investigated the biological response to e-cigarette aerosol exposure (versus conventional cigarette smoke exposure) at the cellular level, by exposing human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) to aqueous filtered extracts of e-cigarette aerosol or cigarette smoke and looking at gene expression changes consistent with a stress response. This included genes controlled by the oxidant-stress sensing transcription factor NFR2 (NFE2L2), and cytochrome P450 family members. Methods Cigarette smoke extract (CSE) was created using mainstream smoke from a single cigarette drawn through 10 ml of endothelial cell growth media MV2. Electronic cigarette aerosol extract (eCAE) was created using the same apparatus, using a constant power output of 10.8 w (4.2 V) and 18 mg/ml nicotine solution. eCAE was generated using 5 cycles of 5 s heat with at least 10 s in between each puff to allow the coil to cool, air being drawn through the device at 70 ml/minute. Results HCAEC responded to the noxious components in CSE, resulting in activation of NRF2 and upregulation of cytochrome p450. However, eCAE did not induce NRF2 nuclear localisation, upregulation of NRF2-activated genes, or the upregulation of cytochrome p450. Conclusions The use of e-cigarettes as a substitute for conventional cigarettes is likely to reduce immediate tobacco-related harm, at least with respect to cardiovascular harms. |
