Nicotine also activates ERK in non-neuronal cells such as pancreatic acinar cells (Chowdhury et al., 2007) and vascular smooth muscle cells (Kanda and Watanabe, 2007), although it is not known in those cases which nAChR subtypes are involved. In the cortex and hippocampus of mice, nicotine’s inhibition of MAPK (shown by RNAi reduction of alpha7 expression to be alpha7-dependent) prevents activation of nuclear factor- kappaB and c-Myc, also thereby reducing the activity of inducible nitric-oxide synthetase and NO production and decreasing Abeta production (Liu et al., 2007).
