The chemical in tobacco that affects lysosomes is primarily nicotine, along with various other toxic compounds found in tobacco smoke. Nicotine can disrupt lysosomal function by altering membrane integrity and promoting oxidative stress, which can lead to lysosomal dysfunction. Additionally, other harmful substances in tobacco, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals, can also impair lysosomal activity, contributing to cellular damage and inflammation. This disruption is associated with various health issues, including cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
