Smoking is one of the factor that threaten our health. Unfortunately, people recently just take it for granted. It is Ok if you want to smoke to death, but please think about others. Those pregnant mummies and kids out there. They need fresh air my dear smokers! Indeed! Same goes to me! Seriously I dont know how it feels when smokers inhale the"fresh air" like absorbing the sweet taste loly! urrgghh~ Frankly I'm mad, BUT sure we can't simply blame them. Ok, back to my topic highlighted here "Smoking Gene". Wow, I never thought that the smoking habit happens by genetic inheritance. This type of heredity had been exposed to us (my coursemates) by Dr. Faridah in Genetic class last monday. OMG! Meaning here, parents who smoke they impurposely transfer this kind of gene to their kids in future. Isn't it bad guys? Of course we don't want our generations face difficulties and have diseases that closely related to lung. To list out the diseases here, its quite a lot guys. You guys can go check the medical website or any articles of health. I'm sure they help you a lot in order to gain our knowledge.
To inform you, adulthood and adolescence have different sets of gene. Its now implicated in the risk for addiction. It's not the drug addiction dear. Its all about smoking. Yeahh we can see obviously that children at their age 12 to 18 years old have highest rate of smoking over the adult, compared to their elder. Why this happens? Is it because of the influence by their friends? The environment factors? The answer is YES! but there's still factor which the genes! We know that gene carries the genetic materials from the maternal and paternal but do we know that smoking habit also caused by the gene? To me its new thing ti discover as a student. Scientists nowadays do a lot of researches, so no wonder we can find out anything at tip of our fingers. Let me share you the "smoking genes"...

- Variant in a set of Dopamine-related gene.
This gene is associated with the initial state, where a person's risk to start smoke. This gene has stronger impact on smoking initiation in adolescence compared to adults! This causes 1.3-fold increased risk of starting smoking in their teenagers are scientifically proven.
- Set of gene coded for subunits of Nicotinic Cholinergic receptors.
The term Nicotine itself we know it refers to the cigarrate, one of the content. This gene is quite hazard because it expresses the brain target... To what it target for? Haaa... it's targeting toward Nicotine!!! Meaning here the brain is set to take up the nicotine. Its like AN ADDICTION! That is why we can see that people smoke around us cant merely stop smoking. They have been addicted! Variation in this gene influence the likehood of smokers continuing the habit into adult than of adolescence.
Finally, what I can conclude here to those who are smokers DO STOP SMOKING!!!
