Keratinocytes
Furthermore, pharmacological dissection of nicotine’s influence on cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and differentiation (43) indicate that alpha7 nAChRs expressed in keratynocytes are important. Other receptors are clearly involved in this process, since atropine, a muscarinic and sometimes nAChR inhibitor (531, 532), reduces cell adhesion through decreasing desmoligein expression.

Mechanistically, nicotine, acting through nAChRs, decreases keratinocyte migration (188, 189) and modifies the activity of PI3K/Akt, ERK, MEK, and JAK signaling pathways. PubMed:19126755
