1 Nicotine, the most potent constituent of cigarette smoke, augments the release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which increases vascular permeability. Nicotine vascular endothelial growth factor A Mus musculus
2 Nicotine, the most potent constituent of cigarette smoke, augments the release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which increases vascular permeability. Nicotine vascular endothelial growth factor A Mus musculus
3 This correlated with a significant increase in peritoneal VEGF levels occurring at 6 and 24 h in the nicotine group. Nicotine vascular endothelial growth factor A Mus musculus
4 This effect may be mediated through a direct augmentation of peritoneal VEGF release by nicotine with a subsequent increase in mesenteric endothelial permeability. Nicotine vascular endothelial growth factor A Mus musculus
