Iodine 123 N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine (tz3I-IMP), originally developed as a brain scanning agent, is also taken up by the lung. To evaluate the effects of cigarette smoking on the kinetics of IMP in the lung, we studied 123I-IMP clearance from the lung in 18 volunteers (8 non-smokers and 10 smoke

## Abstract The activity of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (substrate: benzo(__a__)pyrene) was increased in the tracheas of rats exposed to cigarette smoke for 1 h daily for either 1 or 10 days. However the degree of increase in activity was lower in the trachea than in the lung. After a single expos
## Abstract In both the rat kidney and lung, inhalation of cigarette smoke diluted with air (1/15) for a limited period of time (15 min) specifically induces aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH)<2> in less than 4 h. Up to four successive inhalations administered at 2βh intervals additively induce bot
