Abstract
► AuIB, a selective α3β4 antagonist, was used to assess α3β4 in nicotine behaviors. ► α3β4 nicotinic receptors do not mediate acute nicotine behaviors. ► α3β4 nicotinic receptors mediate nicotine reward and withdrawal independent of α5. ► α3β4 nicotinic receptors are involved in somatic, but not affective withdrawal.
