Effects of cigarette smoke extract derived from heated tobacco products on the proliferation of lung cancer stem cells

Epidemiological studies have suggested that cigarette smoking can increase a person’s risk of developing several types of cancer, including lung cancer. Lung cancer originates from cancer stem cells (CSCs), which constitute a minor cell population in tumors, and contribute to drug resistance and rec...

description Epidemiological studies have suggested that cigarette smoking can increase a person’s risk of developing several types of cancer, including lung cancer. Lung cancer originates from cancer stem cells (CSCs), which constitute a minor cell population in tumors, and contribute to drug resistance and recurrence. Heated tobacco products (HTPs) produce aerosols that contain nicotine and toxic chemicals. Current evidence, however, is insufficient to accurately determine if HTPs are less harmful than burned cigarettes. This study has investigated the effects of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) from HTPs on lung CSCs in lung cancer cell lines. We found that CSEs induced the proliferation of lung CSCs and increased the expression levels of stem cell markers. In addition, CSE induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) expression and cytokine production. These results suggest that HTPs can induce lung CSCs in vitro.
