Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. 2008 Oct 3; Authors: Benowitz NL Nicotine sustains tobacco addiction, a major cause of disability and premature death. Nicotine binds to nicotinic cholinergic receptors, facilitating neurotransmitter release and thereby mediating the complex actions of Nicotine in tobacco users. Dopamine, glutamate, and gamma aminobutyric acid release are particularly important in the development of Nicotine dependence, and corticotropin-releasing factor appears to contribute to Nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine dependence is highly heritable. Genetic studies indicate roles for nicotinic receptor subtypes, as well as genes involved in neuroplasticity and learning, in development of dependence. Nicotine is primarily metabolized by CYP2A6, and variability in rate of metabolism contributes to vulnerability to tobacco dependence, response to smoking cessation treatment, and lung cancer risk. Tobacco addiction is much more common in persons with mental illness and substance abuse disorders, representing a high proportion of current smokers. Pharmacotherapeutic approaches to tobacco addiction include Nicotine replacement, bupropion, and varenicline, the latter a selective Nicotine receptor partial agonist.

For decades now, cigarette makers have marketed so-called light cigarettes - which contain less Nicotine than regular smokes - with the implication that they are less harmful to smokers' health. A new UCLA study shows, however, that they deliver nearly as much Nicotine to the brain. Reporting in the current online edition of the International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, UCLA psychiatry professor Dr. Arthur L. Brody and colleagues found that low-Nicotine cigarettes act similarly to regular cigarettes, occupying a significant percentage of the brain's Nicotine receptors. Light cigarettes have Nicotine levels of 0.6 to 1 milligrams, while regular cigarettes contain between 1.2 and 1.4 milligrams The researchers also looked at de-nicotinized cigarettes, which contain only a trace amount of Nicotine (0.05 milligrams) and are currently being tested as an adjunct to standard smoking-cessation treatments. They found that even that low a Nicotine level is enough to occupy a sizeable percentage of receptors. "The two take-home messages are that very little Nicotine is needed to occupy a substantial portion of brain Nicotine receptors," Brody said, "and cigarettes with less Nicotine than regular cigarettes, such as 'light' cigarettes, still occupy most brain Nicotine receptors. Thus, low-Nicotine cigarettes function almost the same as regular cigarettes in terms of brain Nicotine-receptor occupancy. In addition to Brody, other authors of ...
