“…In contrast, isoarecolone is reported to be less efficacious than nicotine in releasing [3H]-dopamine from rat frontal cortex (Whiteaker et al, 1995 (Aizenman et al, 1991). Lobeline fails to mimic nicotine in tests of conditioned place preference (Fudala & Iwamoto, 1986), discriminative stimulus properties Reavill et al, 1990a), and locomotor activity , and receptor binding upregulation (Bhat et al, 1991). These differences are probably not due to inadequate central penetration (Reavill et al, 1990a;Bhat et al, 1991).…”
