Single-cell transcriptomics identifies altered neutrophil dynamics and accentuated T-cell cytotoxicity in tobacco flavored e-cigarette exposed mouse lungs

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to identify flavor-dependent immune changes in mouse lungs exposed to e-cigarette aerosols, revealing altered neutrophil dynamics and increased T-cell cytotoxicity.

Deposition of microplastics associated with bioaccumulation of heavy metals in human lungs of smokers: Implications of adsorption and mobilization of metals via microplastics

This study finds that smoking increases microplastic (MNP) and cadmium (Cd) levels in lung tissues, with a strong correlation between PE microplastics and Cd accumulation.
