Morphological changes in lungs, placenta, liver and kidneys of pregnant rats exposed to cigarette smoke

Abstract: Taking into account the morphological changes observed in adult rat tissues and placentae which can result in definite hormonal and trophic effects on the foetus, the possibility of early or late physiological effects in progeny under the influence of cigarette smoke must be taken into consideration.

“…In the kidney, developmental CSE alters the shape of the proximal and distal convoluted tubules, reduces the proximal tubule cuboidal epithelium thickness, and yields immature glomeruli in neonates [64, 65]. As previously demonstrated, 'active' CSE during pre- and post-natal development, including the entirety of kidney organogenesis, results in low birth weight that is coupled to decreased offspring weights throughout postnatal development, although the rate of growth is unaffected [44].…”

“…Both are positively associated with the development of hypertension (Abitbol and Ingelfinger, 2009). The putative link between developmental CSE and adult onset hypertension and/or cardiovascular disease may be attributed in part to mild structural dysmorphology and proportionally smaller kidney size (Czekaj et al ., 2002; Nelson et al ., 1999). In utero passive CSE at defined developmental windows (pre-, during, and post-organogenesis) induced growth retardation paired with increased kidney cellular apoptosis, delayed glomerular maturation, and mesenchymal histological abnormalities (Nelson et al ., 1999).…”

“…The literature shows that metabolic acidosis may negatively impact bone metabolism 2 . In this study, the animals were exposed to passive smoking, which produces respiratory acidosis; 6 this may suggest that the changes seen in BMD and BMC may be connected to the effects of smoke exposure.…”

“…- Adaptation stage: the first five days of exposure to cigarette smoke for group G1 in the smoke chamber at a temperature of 23±1°C 6 for 10 minutes, once a day, with 250 ppm (parts per million) of CO (carbon monoxide) measured using a specific gas sensor (ToxiPro device, Biosystems, Prairieville, United States); and…”
