Medical News Today reported..April 26. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/147534.php Researcher Muy-Teck Teh of the Institute of Dentistry,Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry at Queen Mary University London said..that nicotine appears to increase expression of the gene FOXM1 in the mouth;..increased levels of the gene is known to be associated with..some forms of cancer. "Our study found that FOXM1 was enhanced...during the early progressive stages of mouth cancer...This mean..if..someone has increased levels of FOXM1 in their mouth,..it..could..indicate the early stages of mouth cancer,"said Teh..."We were surprised...lol..to find that nicotine increased the levels of FOXM1 in the cells... We used the same amount of nicotine found in tobacco-replacement therapies such as chewing-gums..and the amount was enough to activate the gene." Mouth cancer affects nearly 5,000 people in the UK each year and there has been a 17 per cent increase in cases during the last four years....[BET THEY ARE YET BLAMED ON SMOKING>>>LOL ok how may deaths..[from non-smoking]..yet from nicoteen?] this site contains a breakdown of the..ATTRIBUTABLE..CAUSES of death[includes 40,000 ATTRIBUTABLE to passive smoking]..attributaed are 440,000,..but the graph gives a clue of the other ATTRIBUTABLE causes creating our 19,000 death numbers http://www.nida.nih.gov/ResearchReports/Nicotine/nicotine3.html Posted by one under god, Saturday, 16 May 2009 12:18:54 PM
