Prenatal Nicotine Exposure Selectively Affects Nicotinic Receptor Expression in Primary and Associative Visual Cortices of the Fetal Baboon

Exposure to nicotine during pregnancy via maternal cigarette smoking is associated with visual deficits in children. This is possibly due to the activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the occipital cortex, which are important in the development of visual mapping. Using a baboon...
