It has been shown that the alpha7 receptors, but not the alpha3beta2 receptors, specifically trigger calcium release from intracellular stores by activating ryanodine receptors. Such a specific functional coupling of alpha7 receptors and ryanodine-sensitive stores may provide another site of therapeutic intervention. However, the sustained calcium rise seen in these cells upon prolonged nicotine administration, which is more likely to be of relevance to neuroprotection than short-term responses, is more dependent upon the activation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptors (Dajas-Bailador et al., 2002a), which are also a target for phosphorylation by FYN (Cui et al., 2004).

Nicotine protects PC12 cells from cell death resulting from serum depletion through a mechanism that depends upon the function of IP3 receptors, L-type calcium channels, ryanodine receptors, and ERK, suggesting that the protective effect of nicotine is mediated by calcium signaling pathways (Ren et al., 2005).
