Inactivation of phosphodiesterase-4B gene in rat nucleus accumbens shell by CRISPR/Cas9 modulates the motivation to chronically self-administer nicotine

Abstract excerpt
Large scale human genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified a growing pool of genes associated with cigarette smoking. One of the most prominent, phosphodiesterase-4B (PDE4B), has been associated with multiple smoking phenotypes. Although PDE4B modulates the half-life of neuronal cAMP, its precise role in smoking behaviors is unknown. To address this knowledge gap, we used a reverse translational appr...
