Halliwell Summary The mechanism by which cigarette smoke causes or contributes to inflammatory diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer remains unclear. Recent developments in our knowledge of cellular signalling suggest that cigarette smoke may cause oxidative stress in cellular systems. The assessment, consequences and possible modulation of these effects are discussed in this book Analysis geneeskunde medicine volksgezondheid public health biochemie biochemistry ademhalingssysteem respiratory system oncologie oncology Medicine (General) Geneeskunde (algemeen) Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record In Springer e-books Subject Tobacco -- Physiological effect.
