Research identifies protein responsible for increasing inflammation and oxidative stress
A new study has identified a protein that nicotine-free vape fluid increases in the lung, causing damage including oxidative stress, inflammation and breakdown of the blood vessels.
The research, published in the journal Microvascular Research demonstrates a range of damaging pathways when an in vitro model of the human lung was exposed to a common brand of nicotine-free e-cigarette.
E-cigarettes have become increasingly popular in recent years and are often seen as harmless alternatives to cigarette smoking. It is estimated that there are almost five million ‘vapers’ in the UK, compared to around 700,000 in 2012.
I’ve been vaping for 7 years and I’ve literally never heard a single person IRL or on the internet call it “vape oil”. It’s vape juice.
Okay. Please give my apologies to your people, oh Lord of Vapes.
Edit: I googled “vape oil” and people call it that sometimes. I don’t get why you’re so offended by how people lable their viscous slippery goo
Edit2: You’re right. Juice really is the scientific term for the stuff in vapes. I’ve been a fool
