Recent study says leptin may modulate the immune responses from cigarette smoke. Other studies demonstrate that leptin and Il-6 may be involved with sickness syndrome and may include modulation of hormones that regulate behavior such as orexins and may contribute to inflammation-induced insulin resistance.
Notes: Recent study also demonstrates that cigarette smoke induced epigenetic changes in epithelial cells in vitro that may contribute to cancer growth.
