  • Title: Nicotine exerts differential effects on different CA1 hippocampal cell types.
    Author: Reece LJ, Schwartzkroin PA.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1991 Feb 01; 540(1-2):287-90. PubMed ID: 2054621.
    Abstract:
    The effects of (-) nicotine hydrogen tartrate (NHT) were examined on several cell types in the CA1 region of rat hippocampus. The results indicate that nicotine may have a preferential net inhibitory effect on basket cells and an excitatory effect on oriens/alveus interneurons. The resultant effects of nicotine on pyramidal cells may thus be a product of complex local circuit interactions.
