Dysregulation of Lung Biology of Healthy Never Smokers Following Acute Inhalation of E-Cigarette Vapors

ABSTRACT: Little is known about the health risks to humans associated with smoking or “vaping” electronic cigarettes (EC). Based on the knowledge that the adverse effects of cigarette smoking are observed in the dysregulation of lung biology long before clinical abnormalities manifest, we assessed the hypothesis that acute exposure to EC vapors, with or without nicotine, modifies the biology of the lung of healthy never smokers. No significant changes in clinical parameters were observed following this brief exposure to EC vapors. However, marked changes were observed in the transcriptome of small airway epithelium and alveolar macrophage compared to baseline for both exposure groups with and without nicotine, and the group inhaling the nicotine containing vapors had elevated plasma endothelial microparticle levels. While additional studies are needed to ascertain long-term health risks of EC, this study provides preliminary in vivo data suggesting that EC vapors likely dysregulates normal human lung homeostasis, at least at the biologic level.

microRNA expression of human periodontal ligament derived stem cell line exposed to 1 microMolar (uM) (-)-nicotine liquid or 1 uM nicotine electronic cigarette vapor extract against untreated control

Project description:Nicotine and cigarette smoking have been previously shown to inhibit the differentiation potential and miRNA expression of human periodontal ligament derived stem cells (PDLSCs). Electronic cigarette (EC) vapor also contains nicotine, as well as other non-nicotine compounds, and, like cigarette smoking, EC vaping results in similar routes of toxic exposure for PDLSCs. The effect of exposure on PDLSC miRNA expression is unknown. To determine these effects, cultured PDLSCs were exposed to media supplemented with 1 uM nicotine EC vapor extract for 72h, during which media was changed every 24h. To produce vapor extract, an EC filled with 36 mg/ml nicotine, 50%/50% (w/v) PG/VG, non-flavored e-liquid (American E-liquid) was vaped using an automated vaping robot programmed with experienced e-cigarette user patterns (i.e. puff volume: 70 ml, duration: 3s, frequency: 20s) and resulting vapor was extracted via a liquid impinger. 1 uM of pure (-)-nicotine liquid (Sigma Aldrich) was used as a positive control. Total miRNA was collected with the mirVana miRNA isolation kit. miRNA concentration and quality was measured by spectrophotometry and expression was analyzed with Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 4.0 Arrays. Results were normalized against human-positive and negative chip controls using Robust Multi-Array Average Normalization.

A 7-month inhalation toxicology study in C57BL/6 mice demonstrates reduced pulmonary inflammation and emphysema following smoking cessation or switching to e-vapor products.

Project description:Cigarette smoking causes serious diseases, including lung cancer, heart disease, and emphysema. While cessation remains the most effective approach to minimize smoking-related disease, alternative non-combustible tobacco-derived nicotine containing products may reduce disease risks among those unable or unwilling to quit. E-vapor aerosols typically contain significantly lower levels of smoke-related harmful and potentially harmful constituents; however, health risks of long-term inhalation exposures are unknown. We designed a 7-month inhalation study in C57BL/6 mice to evaluate long-term respiratory toxicity of e-vapor aerosols compared to cigarette smoke and to assess the impact of smoking cessation or switching to an e-vapor product after 3 months of exposure to 3R4F cigarette smoke (CS). There were no significant changes in in-life observations (body weights, clinical signs) in e-vapor groups compared to the Sham Control. The 3R4F CS group showed reduced respiratory function during exposure and had lower body weight and showed transient signs of distress post-exposure. Following 7 months of exposure, e-vapor aerosols resulted in no or minimal increase in pulmonary inflammation, while exposure to 3R4F CS led to impairment of lung function and caused marked lung inflammation and emphysematous changes. Biological changes observed in the Switching group were similar to the Cessation group. 3R4F CS exposure dysregulated lung and nasal tissue transcriptome, while these molecular effects were substantially lower in the e-vapor group. Results from this study demonstrate that in comparison with 3R4F CS, e-vapor aerosols induce substantially lower biological responses including pulmonary inflammation and emphysema, and that complete switching from CS to e-vapor products significantly reduces biological changes associated with cigarette smoke in C57BL/6 mice.

Electronic cigarette exposure disrupts blood-brain barrier integrity, promotes neuroinflammation, and leads to cognitive dysfunction

Project description:Electronic cigarette (EC) use has grown substantially since entry into the US market, particularly among adolescents and combustible tobacco users. Despite growing popularity and claims of harm reduction, the health effects of these products outside the lung is poorly understood. Several constituents of cigarette smoke (CS) with known neurovascular and inflammatory effects are present in EC liquids or formed during the generation of vapor. The present study characterizes the impact of EC exposure on neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier (BBB) function, and provides comparison of outcomes with reference cigarette exposure normalized to comparable levels of nicotine delivery. Additionally, the contribution of nicotine to observed effects is elucidated through comparison with EC liquids which are verified to be nicotine-free. C57BL/6 mice are exposed to 2 hrs of daily EC vapor or CS, beginning at 8 wks of age. Changes in BBB gene expression are first characterized by whole exome sequencing of isolated brain microvessels following chronic (2 month) EC exposure.

Rat-THS2.2M-Experiment

Project description:Toward the reduction of smoking-related health risks potential reduced risk products (pRRPs) are being developed. The Tobacco Heating System (THS) 2.2 is a recently developed pRRP, which relies on the heat-not-burn principle. We present results from the systems-toxicology arm of a 90-day Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development test guideline 413 inhalation study for the assessment of a mentholated version of THS2.2 (THS2.2M). Sprague-Dawley rats were nose-only exposed, 6?h/day, 5 days/week to filtered air, three concentrations of THS2.2M aerosol (15Î¼g/l, 23Î¼g/l, 50Î¼g/l nicotine), cigarette smoke (CS) from the reference cigarette 3R4F (23Î¼g/l nicotine), or CS from reference cigarettes with two different menthol concentrations (23Î¼g/l nicotine; 1.2 and 2.4 mg menthol/cigarette). Reversibility of the exposure effects was assessed in a subset of the groups following 42 days of filtered air exposure. Standard toxicology endpoints were complemented by transcriptomics and quantitative proteomics analyses of nasal epithelium and lung tissue and by lipidomics analysis of lung tissue. The adaptive response of the nasal epithelium to CS exposure included squamous cell metaplasia and an inflammatory response, with high correspondence between the molecular and histopathological results. In contrast to CS exposure, the adaptive tissue and molecular changes to THS2.2M aerosol exposure were much reduced and mostly limited to the highest THS2.2M concentration in female rats. In the lung, CS exposure induced an inflammatory response, triggered cellular stress responses (e.g., oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolism), and affected sphingolipid metabolism. These responses were not observed or much lower upon THS2.2M aerosol exposure. All in all, this system toxicology analysis complements and reconfirms the classical toxicological endpoints and further suggests a potentially reduced risk of THS2.2M.

Smoking carcinogen induced inflammation promotes lung carcinogenesis via IRAK4 activation

Project description:Even though smoking is associated with lung cancer, the exact molecular pathways that link carcinogens with inflammation and oncogenic transformation are not well elucidated. Nicotine-derived nitrosamine ketone, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) and Benzo(α)pyrene (BaP) are two major carcinogens in cigarette smoke and have not been tested in models that mimic inhaled exposure for prolonged periods of time. We treated ICR mice with intratracheal delivery of NNK and BaP three times a week for 18 months to mimic chronic smoking exposure. Mice developed epithelial dysplasia followed by lung cancers at increased rates relative to controls. Histology revealed myeloid inflammation in murine lung tissues. Exposure of lung epithelial cells to cigarette smoking condensate led to increased production of pro-inflammatory IL-1. Downstream mediator of IL-1β signaling, Interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase–4 (IRAK4), was overexpressed in murine lung tissues exposed to carcinogens in vivo. Two-thirds of human lung cancer samples also exhibited overactivated IRAK4 expression. IRAK4 was found to localize in microtubules in lung cancer cell lines. Using mass spectrometry on isolated microtubules, we observed that IRAK4 inhibition was associated with decreased phosphorylation of tubular motility proteins including MYH9. Inhibition of IRAK4 resulted in decreased invasion in lung cancer cell lines and reduced growth of lung cancer xenografts. These data demonstrate that smoking associated carcinogens cause myeloid inflammation that can be linked to oncogenic transformation via IRAK4 activation.

A lower impact of exposure to electronic cigarette aerosols than to cigarette smoke in human organotypic buccal and small airway cultures was demonstrated using systems toxicology assessment

Project description:In the context of tobacco harm-reduction strategy, the potential reduced impact of electronic cigarette (EC) exposure should be evaluated relative to the impact of cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. We conducted a series of in vitro studies to compare the biological impact of an acute exposure to aerosols of “Test Mix” (flavors, nicotine, and humectants), “Base” (nicotine and humectants), and “Carrier” (humectants) formulations using MarkTen® EC device with the impact of CS exposure, at a matching puff number, using human organotypic air–liquid interface buccal and small airway cultures. We measured the concentrations of nicotine and carbonyls deposited in the exposure chamber after each exposure experiment. The deposited nicotine concentrations were used as a measure of nicotine delivery to assess harm reduction relative to CS. The deposited carbonyl concentrations were used as representative measures to assess the reduced exposure to potentially toxic volatile substances. We followed a systems toxicology approach whereby functional biological endpoints, such as histopathology and ciliary beating frequency, were complemented by multiplex and omics assays to measure secreted inflammatory proteins and whole-genome transcriptomes, respectively. Among the endpoints analyzed, the only parameters that showed a significant response to EC exposure were secretion of proteins and whole-genome transcriptomes. Based on the multiplex and omics analyses, the cellular responses to EC aerosol exposure were tissue type-specific; however, those alterations were much smaller than those following CS exposure, even when the EC aerosol exposure under the testing conditions resulted in a deposited nicotine concentration approximately 200 times that in saliva of EC users.

Use of Apoe−/− Mice in an 8-Month Systems Toxicology Inhalation/Cessation Study to Investigate Cardiovascular and Respiratory Exposure Effects of a Candidate Modified Risk Tobacco Product, THS 2.2, Compared with Conventional Cigarettes

Project description:Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), so modified risk tobacco products (MRTPs) are being developed to reduce smoking-related health risks. The present study investigated the hallmarks of COPD and CVD over an 8-month period in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice exposed to conventional cigarette smoke (CS) or to an aerosol from a candidate MRTP, the tobacco heating system (THS2.2). In addition to chronic exposure, cessation or switching to THS2.2 after 2 months of CS was investigated. In a systems toxicology approach, exposure effects were investigated using physiology and histology combined with transcriptomics, lipidomics, and proteomics. CS induced nasal epithelial hyperplasia and metaplasia, lung inflammation, and emphysematous changes (impaired pulmonary function and alveolar damage). Atherogenic effects of CS exposure included altered lipid profiles and increased aortic plaque formation. Exposure to THS2.2 aerosol (nicotine concentration matched to CS: 29.9 mg/m3) did not induce lung inflammation or emphysema, nor did it consistently change the lipid profile or enhance the plaque area. Cessation and switching reversed the inflammatory responses and led to no further progression of initial emphysematous changes or the aortic plaque area. Biological processes, including senescence, inflammation, and proliferation, were significantly impacted in CS, but not THS2.2-exposed tissues. Cessation or switching reduced these perturbations to become nearly indistinguishable from sham exposure. In conclusion, this mouse model indicated that cessation or switching to THS2.2 retarded the progression of atherosclerotic and emphysematous changes, while THS2.2 alone had no adverse effects.

A 6-Month Systems Toxicology Inhalation/Cessation Study in ApoE-/- Mice to Investigate Cardiovascular and Respiratory Exposure Effects of the Modified-Risk Tobacco Products CHTP1.2 and THS2.2 Compared with the Effects of Conventional Cigarettes [Lung iTRAQ data].

Project description:Cigarette smoke (CS) causes adverse health effects that may occur shortly after smoking initiation and lead to the development of respiratory disease (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), cardiovascular disease, and cancer. To reduce the risk of smokers developing smoking-related diseases, Philip Morris International is developing modified risk tobacco products (MRTP). Within a systems toxicology study, we integrated multi-omics measurements with classical endpoints to assess the effects in female ApoE-/- mice of six months of exposure to CS (at 29.9 µg nicotine/L) or to aerosols from one potential and one candidate MRTP (CHTP 1.2 and THS 2.2, respectively) at matched nicotine concentrations. The impact of cessation or switching to CHTP 1.2 after three months of CS exposure was also evaluated. This data set contains the results from the analysis of proteome changes in the lung using the iTRAQ® quantification approach.

An 8-Month Systems Toxicology Inhalation/Cessation Study in Apoe-/- Mice to Investigate Cardiovascular and Respiratory Exposure Effects of a Candidate Modified Risk Tobacco Product, THS 2.2, Compared With Conventional Cigarettes

Project description:Smoking cigarettes is a major risk factor in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Modified risk tobacco products (MRTPs) are being developed to reduce smoking-related health risks. The goal of this study was to investigate hallmarks of COPD and CVD over an 8-month period in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice exposed to conventional cigarette smoke (CS) or to the aerosol of a candidate MRTP, tobacco heating system (THS) 2.2. In addition to chronic exposure, cessation or switching to THS2.2 after 2 months of CS exposure was assessed. Engaging a systems toxicology approach, exposure effects were investigated using physiology and histology combined with transcriptomics, lipidomics, and proteomics. CS induced nasal epithelial hyperplasia and metaplasia, lung inflammation, and emphysematous changes (impaired pulmonary function and alveolar damage). Atherogenic effects of CS exposure included altered lipid profiles and aortic plaque formation. Exposure to THS2.2 aerosol (nicotine concentration matched to CS, 29.9?mg/m3) neither induced lung inflammation or emphysema nor did it consistently change the lipid profile or enhance the plaque area. Cessation or switching to THS2.2 reversed the inflammatory responses and halted progression of initial emphysematous changes and the aortic plaque area. Biological processes, including senescence, inflammation, and proliferation, were significantly impacted by CS but not by THS2.2 aerosol. Both, cessation and switching to THS2.2 reduced these perturbations to almost sham exposure levels. In conclusion, in this mouse model cessation or switching to THS2.2 retarded the progression of CS-induced atherosclerotic and emphysematous changes, while THS2.2 aerosol alone had minimal adverse effects.

Lung gene expression of ApoE-/- mice in an 8-month inhalation study to assess exposure effects for a candidate modified risk tobacco product, THS 2.2 compared with conventional cigarettes

Project description:Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for the development and progression of diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Modified risk tobacco products (MRTP) are designed to reduce smoking-related health risks. Suitable animal models are important for understanding smoke-induced pathogenesis.
