Sex-dependant differences in the ability of nicotine to modulate discrimination learning and cognitive flexibility in mice

2024-05-01

Abstract excerpt

1 Nicotine, an addictive compound found in tobacco, functions as an agonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the brain. Interestingly, nicotine has been reported to act as a cognitive enhancer in both human subjects and experimental animals. However, its effects in animal studies have not always been consistent, and sex differences have been identified in the effects of nicotine on several behavior...
