People who vape show DNA changes similar to smokers and that are linked to cancer

found vapers exhibit similar DNA changes to people who smoke cigarettes – modifications commonly found in nearly all types of cancer.

The study also said the specific chemical alterations found – known as "epigenetic changes" – can cause genes to malfunction, and are commonly found in nearly all types of human cancer. If the study's findings are corroborated elsewhere, it could seriously damage a vaping industry already facing severe criticism and regulatory action.

The USC study doesn't appear to be hampered in this way. Berasantinia said most vapers in the study were never smokers, and the few who had a brief history of smoking had their last cigarette, on average, 3.5 years prior to participating in the study. But the experts said vaping research is often held back by many vapers' history of traditional smoking.
