在这一期的《癌症细胞》杂志上,朱和他的同事证明了环境烟草烟雾(ETS)导致肿瘤血管生成,并提供了证据表明ETS的负责因素是尼古丁。虽然尼古丁是一种弱致癌物,但它通过许多不同的机制促进致癌。作者的发现为ETS的有害影响提供了进一步的证据,并指出了减少接触它的可取之处。
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Zhu and coworkers demonstrate that environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) results in tumor angiogenesis, and provide evidence that the responsible factor in ETS is nicotine. While a weak carcinogen, nicotine promotes carcinogenesis by a number of different mechanisms. The authors' findings provide further evidence of the harmful effects of ETS and indicate the desirability of reducing exposure to it.
