AbstractSmoking remains the primary cause of preventable death in the United States and smoking related illness costs more than $300 billion annually. Nicotine (the primary reinforcer in cigarettes) causes changes in behavior and neurochemistry that lead to increased probability of relapse. Given the role of mesolimbic dopamine projections in motivation, substance use disorder, and drug relapse, we examined the effect of repeated nicotine on rapid dopamine signals in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) of rats. Adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to nicotine (0.2 or 0.4 mg/kg, subcutaneous) once daily for 7 days. On day 8, dopamine release and uptake dynamics, and their modulation by nicotinic receptor agonists and antagonists, were assessed using fast scan cyclic voltammetry in the NAc core. Nicotine exposure decreased electrically-stimulated dopamine release across a range of stimulation frequencies and decreased α6β2-containing nicotinic receptor control over dopamine release. Additionally, nicotine locomotor sensitization correlated with accumbal dopamine modulation by nicotine and mecamylamine. Taken together, our study suggests that repeated exposure to nicotine blunts dopamine release in the NAc core through changes in α6β2 modulation of dopamine release and individual differences in the sensitivity to this outcome may predict variation in behavioral models of vulnerability to substance use disorder.
