Several studies have indicated that nicotine increases responding maintained by conditioned reinforcers. We assessed the effects of subcutaneous injections of 0.3 mg/kg nicotine and two nicotinic antagonists on responding maintained by conditioned and primary reinforcers and responding during extinction in 8 Long Evans rats. Mecamylamine, a central and peripheral nicotinic antagonist, and hexamethonium, a peripheral nicotinic antagonist, were administered prior to a subset of the experimental sessions. Nicotine selectively increased responding maintained by conditioned reinforcers and mecamylamine, but not hexamethonium, attenuated this effect. These results suggest that nicotine's enhancing effect on responding maintained by conditioned reinforcers is mediated in the central nervous system.

experimental and clinical psychopharmacology

Nicotine's enhancing effects on responding maintained by conditioned reinforcers are reduced by pretreatment with mecamylamine, but not hexamethonium, in rats.
