Study Summary

Cigarette smoking evokes major changes in the biology of the airway epithelium, the cell population that takes the brunt of the stress of cigarette smoke and the cell population central to the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer. The focus of this study is to identify the differences that two popular alternative nicotine delivery strategies, shisha and electronic cigarettes, have on the airway epithelium compared to cigarette smoking. We hypothesize that both alternative nicotine delivery strategies disorder airway epithelial biology, but in different ways than does cigarette smoking.

Primary Outcome

We will measure the effect that shisha smoking has on the small airway epithelium (SAE) by measuring parameters such as the SAE gene expression, DNA methylation, telomere length and cilia length in "pure shisha smokers" (i.e., non-cigarette smokers.) We will compare these parameters to the same parameters measured in non-smokers and cigarette smokers.
