Evanoff publishes article in the journal Experimental Physiology
The article examined the effect of circulating endothelial cell-derived microvesicles isolated from e-cigarette users on inflammatory cytokine production.
Nick Evanoff, MS, current doctoral student in the School of Kinesiology, is the author of an article published in the journal Experimental Physiology. The article titled “Circulating extracellular microvesicles associated with electronic cigarette use increase endothelial cell inflammation and reduce nitric oxide production” examined the effect of circulating endothelial cell-derived microvesicles isolated from e-cigarette users on inflammatory cytokine production. The results of this study suggest that circulating microvesicles might represent novel systemic mediators of vascular risk and disorders associated with e-cigarette use. Don Dengel, PhD, a professor of kinesiology and director of the Laboratory of Integrative Human Physiology, is also co-author of this article.
