Histological and Endocrine Effects of Chronic Exposure to MP2.5 Derived from Wood Smoke in the Uterus of Nulliparous Adult Rats

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: The study explores the relationship between chronic exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5), sourced from wood smoke, and the histological structure and endocrine function of the uterus in nulliparous adult rats. It assesses potential structural changes in the uterus that could impact reprod...

Probiotics supplementation reduces cigarette smoke-induced damage in the respiratory micro-architecture of mice

This study evaluated the protective efficacy of probiotics supplementation against cigarette smoke-induced lung emphysema, inflammation, and loss of cilia in mice. Probiotics are known to promote mucosal tolerance and mitigate respiratory injuries. Twenty-four adult mice were randomly divided into three ...

Aplicación de modelos metabolómicos para la identificación de EPOC en poblaciones expuestas a humo de leña en una comunidad indígena de México

Acta toxicol. argent; 30 (3), 2022
Resumen Propósito: Para la evaluación metabólica de la fisiopatología pulmonar se utiliza principalmente el aliento exhalado, el cual ha tomado una gran relevancia como método de diagnóstico no invasivo, de bajo costo, rápido y seguro. El objetivo del presente estudio fue aplicar modelos metaboló...

Intoxicación aguda con monóxido de carbono (ICO) secundaria a pipa de agua (Narguile). Reporte de un caso

Acta toxicol. argent; 29 (3), 2021
Resumen Dentro de las formas alternativas de consumo de tabaco, se describe el uso de pipas de agua (también llamadas hookah, shisha o narguile) como implementos de uso. Esta forma de uso es una forma emergente en nuestro medio, con uso en estudiantes universitarios y secundarios. Debido a que utiliza c...

Efeito da exposição a produtos fumígenos sobre a expressão de metalotioneínas durante a artrite experimental e sobre linfócitos T

Produtos liberados pela queima do cigarro convencional (CC) estão relacionados com a progressão clínica da artrite reumatoide (AR). Produtos fumígenos não combustíveis surgiram com a premissa de apresentarem menor toxicidade que o CC, dentre os quais está o tabaco aquecido (heat-not-burn tobacco; ...

Impact of exposure to smoke from biomass burning in the Amazon rain forest on human health

J. bras. pneumol; 47 (5), 2021
ABSTRACT This review study aimed to determine the relationship between exposure to smoke from biomass burning in the Amazon rain forest and its implications on human health in that region in Brazil. A nonsystematic review was carried out by searching PubMed, Google Scholar, SciELO, and EMBASE databases f...

Impact of maternal exposure to wood smoke pollution on fetal lung morphology in a rat model

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: Residential heating with wood is an important source of ambient air pollution. Evidence links air pollution to serious health effects such as respiratory and cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. We hypothesized that prenatal exposure to wood smoke pollution causes morphological changes in the...

Exposure to wood smoke pollution during pre-gestational period of rat has effects on placenta volume and fetus size

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: Studies in humans showed that prenatal exposure to urban air pollution (AP) influences fetal development, and increases the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes and some diseases in postnatal life. However, most of these were performed in environments where the main source of environmental pa...

Impact of cigarette smoke and aerobic physical training on histological and molecular markers of prostate health in rats

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (5), 2020
Recent evidence suggests that aerobic physical training may attenuate the deleterious effects of cancer risk factors, including smoking. We investigated the effects of cigarette smoke inhalation and aerobic physical training on the expression of steroid receptors and inflammatory and apoptotic proteins i...
