    Vaping and smoking both cause transcriptomic dysregulation in oral epithelial cells compared to non-users.

  • 2

    Differential gene expression analysis revealed overlapping and unique genes affected by vaping and smoking.

  • 3

    Device generation and flavor type significantly influence gene expression variability among vapers.

  • 4

    A higher percentage of smoking-associated genes showed consistent dose-dependent responses compared to vaping.

  • 5

    Incorporating multidimensional exposure metrics may enhance regulatory evaluations of e-cigarette health impacts.
