20113344 Jia Y, Yamazaki Y, Nakauchi S, Ito K, Sumikawa K: Nicotine facilitates long-term potentiation induction in oriens-lacunosum moleculare cells via Ca2+ entry through non-alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Eur J Neurosci. 2010 Feb;31(3):463-76. Epub 2010 Jan 26.

We found that, in addition to alpha2 subunit mRNAs, these interneurons were consistently positive for somatostatin and neuropeptide Y mRNAs, and showed morphological characteristics of oriens-lacunosum moleculare cells.

In contrast, the treatment induced nicotine adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase activity in 12.7% of postganglionic sympathetic neurons.
Double immunofluorescence method revealed that 99.9% of peptide 19-containing neurons had neuropeptide Y in the superior cervical ganglion.

19483072 Kawasaki H, Eguchi S, Miyashita S, Chan S, Hirai K, Hobara N, Yokomizo A, Fujiwara H, Zamami Y, Koyama T, Jin X, Kitamura Y: Proton acts as a neurotransmitter for nicotine-induced adrenergic and calcitonin gene-related peptide-containing nerve-mediated vasodilation in the rat mesenteric artery. J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2009 Sep;330(3):745-55. Epub 2009 May 29.

Mesenteric arteries were densely innervated by neuropeptide Y-immunopositive nerves, which coalesced with CGRP-immunopositive nerves.
