Synthetic nicotine e-liquids sold in US online vape shops

open access: yesPreventive Medicine Reports, 2023
Synthetic nicotine (relative to tobacco-derived, or “natural” nicotine) is an emerging feature of e-cigarettes including e-liquids in the online marketplace. This study investigated a total of 11,161 unique nicotine e-liquids sold in online stores in the

Direct genetic effects and their estimation from matched case-control data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
In genetic association studies, a single marker is often associated with multiple, correlated phenotypes (e.g., obesity and cardiovascular disease, or nicotine dependence and lung cancer). A pervasive question is then whether that marker has independent effects on all phenotypes. In this article, we address this question by assessing whether there is a

Computational neuroanatomy and co-expression of genes in the adult mouse brain, analysis tools for the Allen Brain Atlas [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We review quantitative methods and software developed to analyze genome-scale, brain-wide spatially-mapped gene-expression data. We expose new methods based on the underlying high-dimensional geometry of voxel space and gene space, and on simulations of the distribution of co-expression networks of a given size.

Small pouches, but high nicotine doses—nicotine delivery and acute effects after use of tobacco-free nicotine pouches

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Tobacco-free nicotine pouches are new nicotine products for oral consumption. They can contain very high nicotine amounts that have not been addressed with clinical studies yet.

Nicotine delivery from the refill liquid to the aerosol via high-power e-cigarette device

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
To offer an enhanced and well-controlled nicotine delivery from the refill liquid to the aerosol is a key point to adequately satisfy nicotine cravings using electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). A recent high-power ENDS, exhibiting higher aerosol

Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with single-particle tracking, mean-squared displacement (MSD), turning angle, ergodicity, and clustering analyses to ...

HPTLC assay of nicotine and cotinine in biological samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study presents the development of a simple high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) method for the determination of nicotine and its metabolite cotinine in human plasma and urine.

The Analgesia-Enhancing Component of\ud Ingested Amniotic Fluid Does Not Affect\ud Nicotine-Induced Antinociception in\ud Naltrexone-Treated Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Ingestion of amniotic fluid and placenta by rats has been shown to enhance opioid-mediated antinociception but not affect the nonopioid-mediated antinociception produced by aspirin, suggesting spccificity for opioid-mediated processes.
