Abstract
Smoking is the main preventable cause of death in the United States and worldwide and is associated with serious cardiovascular health consequences, including thrombotic diseases. Recently, electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) and, in particular JUUL, have attained wide popularity among smokers, nonsmokers, pregnant females, and even the youth, which is alarming. Interestingly, there is/are no information/studies regarding the effect of JUUL on cardiovascular diseases, specifically in the context of modulation of platelet activation. Thus, it is important to discern the cardiovascular disease health risks associated with JUUL. We used a passive e-vape vapor inhalation system where C57BL/6J mice (10-12 weeks old) were exposed to JUUL e-cigarette vape. Menthol flavored JUUL pods containing 5% nicotine by weight were used as the e-liquid. Mice were exposed to a total of 70 puffs daily for 2 weeks; 3-second puff duration, and 25-second puff interval. The effects of JUUL relative to clean air were analyzed, on mouse platelet function in vitro (eg, aggregation) and in vivo (eg, FeCl3-induced carotid artery injury thrombosis model). Our results indicate that short-term exposure to JUUL e-cigarette causes hyperactivation of platelets a...Continue Reading
