Consumption of nitrate in drinking water has previously been associated with a range of adverse health effects, including methemoglobinemia and potentially cancer. In animal models, it has been shown to impact respiratory structure and function, however, there is a paucity of data of the effects of in utero exposure on the respiratory health of offspring.
This review examines the role of T cells in lung cancer, discussing the direction and clinical significance of current and future immunotherapeutic strategies
This study shows, for the first time, that exposure to e-cigarette aerosol during adolescence and early adulthood is not harmless to the lungs and can result in significant impairments in lung function.
Males are generally more susceptible to respiratory infections; however, there are few data on the physiological responses to such infections in males and...
