α6β2 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Influence Locomotor Activity and Ethanol Consumption

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the mesolimbic dopamine system have been implicated in ethanol behaviors. In particular, work in genetically engineered mice has demonstrated that α6-containing nAChRs are involved in ethanol consumption and sedation. A limitation of these studies is tha...
