“…Cigarette smoking is also an established risk factor for some oral diseases, such as periodontal disease, oral leukoplakia, and oral cancer (Wang et al, 2015). Saliva, a key defense against pathogens, is closely associated with the maintenance of the oral health (Wu et al, 2013). Cigarette smoke exposure might alter salivary components, resulting in impaired oral health (Fujinami et al, 2009).…”

Cigarette smoking is an established risk factor for some oral diseases. As an essential fluid in the oral cavity, saliva is crucial to maintain oral health. Relative to active smoking, there are very few studies assessing the effect of passive smoking on salivary cytokines levels. In the present study, we established the rat models by the means of the intraoral cigarette smoking or whole body cigarette smoke exposure to simulate human active or passive smoking, respectively. The effects of active or passive smoking on salivary cytokines levels were assessed by using ProcartaPlex multiplex immunoassays. The results of the current study indicated that both active and passive smoking diminished the body weights of rats and increased the levels of some blood counts. Intriguingly, active smoking enhanced the salivary levels of IL-6 and IL-12 p70 and passive smoking elevated the salivary IL-6 level. Moreover, active smoking appeared to have a more prominent activation effect on the salivary IL-6 level. It was noted that active or passive smoking had no significant effect on the salivary IFNlevel. Active or passive smoking could have potential effects on the salivary levels of some pro-inflammatory cytokines.

“…In this study, three types of surface adsorption sites: physisorption on the surface carbon (containing oxygen) and two types of chemisorption on the MgO surface were investigated. Wu et al [84] incorporated berberineloaded ACF into a CA filter to create a modified B-ACF cigarette filter. The cigarette filter effectively reduced the HCN content in cigarette smoke and mitigated the inhibitory effect of cigarette smoke on oral peroxidase activity.…”

Cigarettes, despite being economically important legal consumer products, are highly addictive and harmful, particularly to the respiratory system. Tobacco smoke is a complex mixture containing over 7000 chemical compounds, 86 of which are identified to have "sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity" in either animal or human tests. Thus, tobacco smoke poses a significant health risk to humans. This article focuses on materials that help reduce the levels of major carcinogens in cigarette smoke; these include nicotine, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, tobacco-specific nitrosamines, hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and formaldehyde. Specifically, the research progress on adsorption effects and mechanisms of advanced materials such as cellulose, zeolite, activated carbon, graphene, and molecularly imprinted polymers are highlighted. The future trends and prospects in this field are also discussed. Notably, with advancements in supramolecular chemistry and materials engineering, the design of functionally oriented materials has become increasingly multidisciplinary. Certainly, several advanced materials can play a critical role in reducing the harmful effects of cigarette smoke. This review aims to serve as an insightful reference for the design of hybrid and functionally oriented advanced materials.

“…Berberine was selected as an additive in a cigarette filter to reduce the adverse effects of cigarette smoke on human health. A study was carried out to evaluate the effect of cigarette smoke on the activity of oral peroxidases after berberine was added to the cigarette filter . The study was performed on saliva obtained from a consenting smoker revealing that there was loss of activity of oral peroxidases by 20% and 25%, concurrent with a reduction in the hydrogen cyanide level in the mainstream cigarette smoke; hydrogen cyanide presence in cigarette smoke is likely to account for the loss of activity of salivary oral peroxidase, which might be related to the berberine inclusion in the cigarette filter .…”

How Do Herbal Cigarettes Compare To Tobacco? A Comprehensive Review of Their Sensory Characters, Phytochemicals, and Functional Properties

Herbal cigarettes, known as tobacco-free or nicotine-free cigarettes, are those recognized as being-tobacco free, being composed of a mixture of various herbs claimed to lessen the smoking habit hazards. However, controversial data regarding its properties occur in the literature with no comprehensive overview or analysis of its effects. Like herbal smokeless tobacco, they are often used to substitute for tobacco products (primarily cigarettes) regarded as a “nonsmoking” aid. This review capitalizes on herbal cigarettes with regard to their quality characteristics, sensory attributes, chemical composition, and health properties to rationalize their choice as a nonsmoking aid. Furthermore, the impacts of heat and/or pyrolysis that occur during smoking on its chemical composition are presented for the first time. Some herbal smokes may produce notable metabolic problems that increase the risk of several chronic metabolic diseases. In general, burning substances from plants can have a variety of negative effects on the body attributed to toxic chemicals such as carbon monoxide, polyaromatics, nicotine, and N-nitrosamines. This review compiles and discusses the phytochemical compositions detected in various herbal cigarettes alongside sensory and quality attributes and health effects.
