Smoking, Respiratory Diseases and Endothelial Dysfunction

Abstract: Vascular endothelium actively participates in inflammatory reactions in the majority of chronic respiratory diseases. Smoking is a major risk factor for bronchopulmonary diseases, and it plays an important role in endothelial dysfunction development. Some experiments prove that aggressive pollutants of tobacco smoke (benzopyrene, peroxynitrite, acrolein, cyanides, peroxides, etc.) can cause direct damage to endothelial cells due to expression of adhesion molecules on their surface and intensification of lipid … Show more

“…In particular, endothelium activation is an important factor of initiation, development and persistence of inflammation, and vessel and tissue remodeling, in particular emphysema. It is not by chance that the relationship of emphysema of the lungs is described in violation of the mechanical properties of the aorta and excessive stiffness of other exponents' bloodstream [4,6,64]. At the basis of these pathological processes are common (genetically determined and pathologically determined) mechanisms associated with impaired collagen-elastin metabolism.…”

“…All disorders begin with local and systemic inflammation, hypoxia and oxidative stress, and lead to an imbalance of proteases-antiproteases, loss of recovery and destruction of lung tissue. Activation and dysfunction of the endothelium involves, first of all, imbalance of the endothelium and its associated mechanisms, which Smoking and COPD: Endothelium-Related and Neuro-mediated Emphysema Mechanisms DOI: http://dx.doi.org /10.5772/intechopen.85927 are due to the following disorders in the pathogenesis of COPD [4]. Separately, we would like to pay attention on some endothelium-dependent factors.…”
