Preventive or therapeutic agents for controlling various disorders induced by toxic substances in smoke produced by the combustion of fibers such as tobacco are disclosed. A polypeptide of the thioredoxin family (TRX) prevents toxic substances in smoke, produced by the combustion of fibers such as tobacco, from inducing inflammatory reactions and tissue fibrosis. Accordingly, TRX is effective for controlling of a wide range of disorders caused by toxic substances contained in smoke produced by combustion of fibers. The object of the present invention is to provide the preventive or therapeutic agents for disorders caused by toxic substances contained in smoke produced by combustion of fibers comprising an effective amount of polypeptide of thioredoxin family and/or one or more of its inducers.
