In view of the hypothesis that the mesolimbic dopamine pathways mediate the euphoric effects of nicotine, the secretion of corticosterone induced by nicotine in the smoking male may substantially influence the mood elevating activity of nicotine.

The findings suggest that the opioid system is involved in nicotine-induced subjective and neuroelectric arousal and implicate opioid-cholinergic interactions in the elicitation of these arousal responses to nicotine.

A feature of the reported experiments on the effect of nicotine upon sensorimotor functions is the very high concentrations of nicotine solutions used in topical applications to the brain surface or local injections within the brain, which were often sufficiently high to produce local non-specific tissue necrosis at the site of application.

The overall goals of this research have been to determine potential brain area sites of nicotine action important to its pharmacological effects and determine whether nicotine is acting at cholinergic receptors (pre-or postsynaptic) excited (or inhibited) by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh); and to determine the potential role that noncholinergic neurons play in the CNS pharmacology of nicotine.

It is proposed that stress-induced increases in glucocorticoid levels protect not against the source of stress itself but rather against the body's normal reactions to stress, preventing those reactions from overshooting and themselves threatening homeostasis.
