Abstract
â¶ Withdrawal from chronic nicotine induces long-lasting increase in BDNF levels. â¶ Nicotine changed BDNF levels in the NAc, in the VTA, and in the substantia nigra. â¶ Nicotine and its withdrawal oppositely affected pCREB in the NAc and in the VTA. â¶ Withdrawal from nicotine reversed the effect on pCREB in the NAc and in the VTA.
