title: Differential effects of cigarette smoke condensate and its fractions on cultured normal and malignant human bronchial epithelial cells.
abstract: The differential effects of cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) and its fractions (neutral, basic, and acidic fractions) on proliferation and squamous differentiation of normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells versus human lung carcinoma cells were investigated. CSC, and the neutral and acidic fractions inhibited cellular proliferation more than the basic fraction. When compared to the acidic and basic fractions, CSC and the neural fraction were more effective in causing squamous differentiation of NHBE cells and inhibiting specific binding of phorbol dibutyrate (PDBU). There were no significant changes in ionized cytosolic calcium concentration when NHBE cells were treated with CSC. In contrast to the normal epithelial cells, neither HUT-292 nor the 3 other carcinoma cell lines examined showed marked squamous morphological changes when exposed to either CSC or its fractions and the carcinoma cells were more resistant to their inhibiting effects on cellular proliferation. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that differential effects of tobacco smoke components on cellular proliferation may allow clonal expansion of preneoplastic and neoplastic human bronchial epithelial cells during lung carcinogenesis.
