The up- regulation of nAChRs has also been obtained using nicotinic agonists (cytisine, carbamylcholine and varenicline) [66, 67], antagonists (dihydro-β-erythroidine, mecamylamine) [68-70] and a partial agonist (CC4) PubMed:28901280

a(MESH:"Dopaminergic Neurons") regulates a(MESH:Nicotine) View Subject | View Object

Dopamine (DA) neurons, which project to the NAc receive both excitatory glutamater- gic and cholinergic afferents that mediate nicotine reward, and inhibitory GABAergic afferents, that mediate aversion [77]. The release of these neurotransmitters is modulated by the nAChRs expressed in cholinergic, glutamatergic and GABAergic terminals PubMed:28901280

Finally, a study has shown that α2 Ko mice have enhanced nicotine self-administration behaviour [88]. These findings suggest that α5* nAChRs in the MHb, and α2* nAChRs in the IPN may underlie aversive responses to nicotine. PubMed:28901280

p(MGI:Chrna5) regulates act(a(MESH:Nicotine)) View Subject | View Object

α5 subunit Ko mice or mice with selective knock down of the α5 subunits in the Hb develop increased nicotine intake in a self-administration paradigm that is blocked by the selective re-expression of the α5 subunit within the MHb; thus indicating that the α5-containing nAChRs located in this brain area also play an important role in regulating the negative effects of nicotine.

By activating the α4β2 receptors on inhibitory GABAergic inputs to the VTA or GABAergic interneurons, smoked concentrations of nicotine transiently increase the release of GABA and subse- quently depress it for about one hour PubMed:28901280

Chronic nicotine treatment also activates the α7 receptors expressed on glutamatergic terminals, increases the release of glutamate (which facilitates the burst firing of VTA DA neurons), increases NMDA receptor activity, and LTP [79], but simultaneosusly induces the desensitisation of the α4β2 receptors on GABAergic terminals. Overall, these effects decrease the inhibition onto DA neurons, and increase DA release in the NAc [82]. PubMed:28901280

nAChRs are particularly important in two critical periods of brain life: early pre- and post-natal circuit formation, and age-related cell degeneration. They are involved in neuronal survival, as it has been shown that nicotinic agonists are neu- roprotective in in vivo and in vitro models PubMed:28901280

Chronic nicotine exposure induces neural adaptations that change cell physi- ology and behaviour mainly as a result of activation and/or desensitisation of nAChRs. Studies of the brains of animals and smokers chronically exposed to nicotine have shown an increase in the number of nAChRs (up-regulation). PubMed:28901280
