Metabolomics profiles alterations in cigarette smokers and heated tobacco product users
CONCLUSIONS: Our study showed that the glutamate pathway is affected by habitual smoking. These changes in the glutamate pathway may partly explain the mechanism by which cigarette smoking causes cardiovascular disease. HTP use was also associated with glutamate metabolism, indicating that HTP use may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease through mechanisms similar to those in cigarette use.PMID:37926518 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20230170
