dc.description.abstractChapter I, the literature review, gives the reader a sound background knowledge of the following: normal lung structural development in humans and rats, metabolic development with reference to structural development, tobacco smoke, and nicotine, and the effect of nicotine and smoking on metabolism. This will enable the reader to understand the motivation for this study and to give insight into the following chapters. Chapter II comprises the influence of maternal nicotine exposure on the enzymes, hexokinase and phosphofructokinase. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of maternal nicotine exposure during pregnancy and lactation on the enzymes involved in the control of energy metabolism of developing lungs of rats at postnatal days 1, 7,14,21, and 49.en_US
