A new study has found that aerosol from nicotine e-cigarettes does not produce the cellular effects caused by cigarette smoke, which can lead to blood vessel damage and a range of heart diseases.


A study published in Wiley Analytical Science has found that the adverse cellular effects of aerosols from heated tobacco products are much lower compared to combustible cigarettes.


This study is part of a replication project, which aims to independently evaluate the scientific validity of one of the most renowned studies conducted by a tobacco company.


According to an article written by Helen Redmond for Filter, the project is operated by the Center of Excellence for Harm Reduction (CoEHAR).


This new research was conducted by an international team of researchers belonging to CoEHAR in independent laboratories in Indonesia, Oman, Russia, Serbia, Greece, and the United States.


Researchers have replicated a study conducted by scientists at BAT in 2017. The study demonstrated that the inhibition of endothelial cell migration caused by cigarette smoke (which lines the interior of the heart and blood vessels) is not caused by exposure to electronic cigarette aerosol.


A Replica study of using Vype ePen3 and heated tobacco products Glo Pro and IQOS 3 Duo has confirmed the results of BAT research.
