More specifically, is nicotine in the concentrations thatsmokers receive when smoking cigarettes toxic? I know that in greatenough concentrations it can be toxic (but then, so can just aboutanything else, including oxygen) and I know that in plants it isused as a defense against insects and can even be used as aninsecticide. However, it has always been my understanding thatnicotine is irrelevant as far as the harmful effects of smokinggo.

I recently had a conversation with another biologist who hadjust quit smoking and had done quite a bit of research on thesubject. He said that nicotine itself is in fact bad for you and,therefore, that tobacco-less alternatives to cigarettes (such aselectronic cigarettes) are still harmful because of thenicotine alone.

Does anyone have any more information on this? Perhaps somereferences? Or, even better, a detailed explanation of the pathwaysinvolved? Again, I stress, not about nicotine's toxicity in generalbut about its harmful effects on vertebrates (preferably human) atthe kinds of concentrations one could expect to ingest whensmoking.
