S-(-)-Nicotine and 13 of the most prevalent nicotine-related alkaloids and metabolites (i.e., S-(-)-nornicotine, myosmine, beta-nicotyrine, S-cotinine, S-norcotinine, S-(-)-nicotine N-1'-oxide, S-(-)-nicotine Delta1'-5'-iminium ion, S-(-)-anabasine, S-(-)-N-methylanabasine, anabaseine, S-(-)-anatabine, nicotelline, and 2,3'-bipyridyl) were evaluated as inhibitors of human cDNA-expressed cytochrome P-450 2A6 (CYP2A6) mediated coumarin 7-hydroxylation.

Because aldosterone synthesis is also cytochrome P450 dependent, we hypothesized a similar inhibitory action on aldosterone production.
In this study we examined the effects of nicotine, anabasine (a related alkaloid), and cotinine (the major metabolite of nicotine) on in vitro aldosterone synthesis.

The addition of nicotine, cotinine or anabasine to preparations of rat adrenal mitochondria produced type II cytochrome P-450 difference spectra.

It is both oxidatively metabolized by cytochrome P450 enzymes and reduced at the nitroguanidine moiety by a previously unidentified cytosolic "neonicotinoid nitroreductase", the subject of this investigation.
