METHODS TO REDUCE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF SMOKING CIGARETTES, CIGARS AND TOBACCO, AND OF EXPOSURE TO SMOKE FROM CIGARETTES, CIGARS AND TOBACCO BY USING KYNURENIC ACID IN NANOPARTICLE CARRIER SYSTEMS

摘要

Kynurenic acid is an endogenous constituent of the human body. The methods for increasing the concentration of kynurenic acid in the lungs by adding kynurenic acid or its salts in nanoparticle carrier systems to cigarettes or tobacco prior to their smoking are described.
