| 1 | The rapid secretion of ACTH in response to nicotine is mediated by a central mechanism involving brainstem catecholaminergic regions. | Nicotine | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Nicotine (0.05 mg/kg) stimulated cFos expression in the parvocellular paraventricular nucleus (pcPVN; containing CRH-positive neurons mediating ACTH secretion); this correlated with the expression of cFos in the A2 (norepinephrinergic) and C2 (epinephrinergic) regions of the brainstem nucleus tractus solitarius, which project directly to the pcPVN. | Nicotine | proopiomelanocortin | Homo sapiens |
