Animal Study

Study Snapshot

Nicotine's psychopharmacological effects are primarily dependent on stimulation of central nicotinic-cholinergic receptors, with non-cholinergic effects at reticular formation and hippocampus sites.

PopulationOlder adults (50-71 years)

Sample size24

MethodsObservational

OutcomesBody Mass Index projections

ResultsSocial networks mitigate obesity in older groups.

Low-dose alcohol can affect behavior and modulate brain activity, with the dentate gyrus playing a key role in modulating sensitivity to its interoceptive effects.

More than Smoke and Patches: The Quest for Pharmacotherapies to Treat Tobacco Use Disorder

Allosteric modulators of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors show potential as an improved treatment for tobacco use disorder, with electronic nicotine delivery systems also under investigation.

Pharmacological classification of the abuse-related discriminative stimulus effects of trichloroethylene vapor.

Trichloroethylene vapor's abuse-related stimulative effects are similar to those of other chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors, toluene, and vapor anesthetics, and overlap with those of barbiturate methohexital, benzodiazepine midazol

Animal Models of Nicotine Exposure: Relevance to Second-Hand Smoking, Electronic Cigarette Use, and Compulsive Smoking

Novel animal models of nicotine exposure and nicotine dependence offer a unique opportunity to investigate the neurobiological effects of second-hand nicotine exposure, electronic cigarette use, and the mechanisms that underlie the transition from nicotine use to compulsive nicotine intake.
