We also demonstrate that, via transfection of either Bcl-2 antisense or NF-kappaB, STAT1 and STAT3 transcription factor decoys oligodeoxyribonucleotides into PC12 cells, nicotine induces its neuroprotection in PC12 cells via activation of the alpha7 nAChR-JAK2-(NF-kappaB; STAT3)-Bcl-2 pro-survival pathway.

Treatment of macrovascular human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and microvascular endothelial cells (MVECs) with the cholinergic agonists nicotine and GTS-21 significantly reduced IL-6-mediated monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) production and ICAM-1 expression which are regulated through the JAK2/STAT3 pathway.

Biochem Pharmacol. 2009 Oct 1;78(7):863-72. Epub 2009 Jul 1.

We determined the anti-inflammatory potential of GTS-21, an alpha7nAChR-selective partial agonist, on primary human leukocytes and compared it with nicotine, the nAChR agonist widely used for research into the anti-inflammatory effects of alpha7nAChR stimulation.

Chronic nicotine enhancement of LTP was found to be dependent on PKA, ERK and Src kinases.
