This study reports a comparative assessment of the biological impact of a heated tobacco aerosol from the tobacco heating system (THS) 2.2 and smoke from a combustible 3R4F cigarette on human organotypic gingival epithelium tissue exposed at the air-liquid interface.
The concentrations of cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors were measured in the basolateral media of the bronchial tissue cultures at various time-points after exposure (as a cross sectional sampling).
This dataset reports single measurements for each tissue insert.
