Abstract

The article describes morphological changes of the lung tissue of Vistar rats. These changes were caused by the inhalation of non-nicotine liquid used for electronic cigarettes. The changes were studied in acute, subacute and chronic periods. Histological research has shown that the experimental group of rats has the swelling of the alveolar septa, interchanging areas of atelectasis and emphysema during the acute period. During the subacute period swelling of the alveolar septa remains present. A number of atelectasis of the alveoli decreased due to the increase of the emphysematous expansion of the alveoli. Chronic period is characterized by emphysema: increase in terminal and respiratory bronchioles as well as in alveolar cavity with thinning of the alveolar septa.
