INVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF α6 and α4 CONTAINING NEURONAL NICOTINIC ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTORS IN NICOTINE AND COCAINE CONDITIONED PLACE PREFERENCE TESTS IN MICE.

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors modulate both cholinergic and non-cholinergic synaptic transmission. Our research concerns α6 and α4 neuronal nicotinic subunits because they often co-assemble with the β2 subunit, which has abundant expression in the CNS and previous work has demonstrated...
