Key result
Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) aerosols caused significantly less inhibition of endothelial cell migration compared to cigarette smoke extract (p<0.0001).

ENDS aerosols inhibit endothelial migration less than cigarette smoke in vitro; hypothesis-generating for harm reduction and leaves open human relevance.
Do electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco products reduce endothelial cell migration inhibition compared to cigarette smoke in vitro?
p-value: p=<0.0001
Electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco products exhibit reduced toxicity on endothelial cell migration compared to traditional cigarettes in vitro, supporting their potential role in harm reduction.
Caruso et al. (2021) studied Endothelial cell migration impairment (in vitro model). Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) aerosol (Vype ePen 3, Glo Pro, IQOS 3 DUO) vs. 1R6F reference cigarette smoke (5-30% AqE) was evaluated on Endothelial cell migration (scratch wound area closure) (p=<0.0001). Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) aerosols caused significantly less inhibition of endothelial cell migration compared to cigarette smoke extract (p<0.0001).
