Long-Term Effects of High Doses of Nicotine on Feeding Behavior and Brain Nitric Oxide Synthase Activity in Female Mice
We studied the long-term effects of repeated doses of nicotine, causing dependence, 120 days after its withdrawal on feeding behavior and on brain nitric oxide (NO) formation in female mice. Nicotine dependence was induced by subcutaneous (s.c.) nicotine injection (2 mg/kg, four injections daily) fo...
