Abstract

Rationale Inflammation and oxidative stress contribute to muscle dysfunction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Oxidants contained in cigarette smoke (CS) induce adverse effects on tissues through oxidative phenomena. Objectives To explore oxidative stress and inflammation in quadriceps of human smokers and in diaphragm and limb muscles of guinea pigs chronically exposed to CS. Methods Muscle function, protein oxidation and nitration, antioxidants, oxidized proteins, inflammation, creatine kinase activity, and lung and muscle structures were investigated in vastus lateralis of smokers, patients with COPD, and healthy control subjects and in diaphragm and gastrocnemius of CS-exposed guinea pigs at 3, 4, and 6 months. Measurements and main results Compared with control subjects, quadriceps muscle force was mildly but significantly reduced in smokers; protein oxidation levels were increased in quadriceps of smokers and patients with COPD, and in respiratory and limb muscles of CS-exposed animals; glycolytic enzymes, creatine kinase, carbonic anydrase-3, and contractile proteins were significantly more carbonylated in quadriceps of smokers and patients with COPD, and in respiratory and limb muscles of CS-exposed guinea pigs. Chronic CS exposure induced no significant rise in muscle inflammation in either smokers or rodents. Muscle creatine kinase activity was reduced only in patients with COPD and in both diaphragm and gastrocnemius of CS-exposed anima…

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Some studies report no difference in oxidative stress markers between COPD patients and healthy smokers, implying that oxidative stress could mainly be attributed to cigarette smoke extracts and not the specificity of systemic involvement of COPD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
