The influence of maternal nicotine exposure during pregnancy and lactation on the Type II cells of lung tissue of one day old neonatal rat pups was investigated. The results clearly show that maternal nicotine exposure resulted in an increase in the type II cell count in the lungs of the offspring.
## Abstract The aim of the present study was to establish whether ascorbic acid supplementation (1 mg/kg/body mass/day) during pregnancy and lactation will prevent the effect of maternal nicotine exposure (1 mg/kg body weight/day) on neonatal lung carbohydrate, DNA and protein metabolism. The data
## Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of maternal nicotine exposure (1 mg nicotine/kg body mass/day) on neonatal lung alveolar epithelial cells. Rats (Wistar descendants) were used. The data illustrate that maternal nicotine exposure during pregnancy and lactation r
