Machine Learning Classification of Smoking Behaviours—From Social Environment to the Prefrontal Cortex

open access: yesAddiction Biology, Volume 30, Issue 8, August 2025.
Applying machine learning to a 10‐year longitudinal cohort, this study identifies stable predictors of smoking status and cessation. By integrating multimodal data – including electrophysiological and neuropsychological measures – our models achieved high classification accuracy and retained meaningful predictive power, prospectively distinguishing ...

Efficacy and Safety of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Agonists for Psychiatric Symptoms: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
This systematic review synthesizes data from 26 studies (n = 3020) and 10 registered trials assessing the psychiatric effects of GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs). Although evidence for substance use disorders was limited and mixed, GLP‐1 RAs showed modest‐to‐moderate benefits for mood symptoms, anxiety, and quality of life in comorbid conditions ...

Effects of Lactobacillus fermentum GKF3 on Reducing Smoking and Brain Neurotransmitter Levels: Findings From Animal and Human Studies

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 2065-2075, July 2025.
1.Developing food‐grade probiotic strains with smoking reduction benefits presents a safer and more holistic health strategy. 2.An animal study demonstrated that L. fermentum GKF3 gavage elevated brain dopamine and serotonin levels. 3.A randomized controlled trial showed that L.

Genetic Variant in CHRNA5 and Response to Varenicline and Combination Nicotine Replacement in a Randomized Placebo‐Controlled Trial

open access: yesClinical pharmacology and therapy, 2020
It is unclear if genetic variants affect smoking cessation treatment response. This study tested whether variants in the cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 5 subunit (CHRNA5) predict response to smoking cessation medication by directly comparing the ...

Light‐Activated Pharmacological Tools for Exploring the Cholinergic System

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 1251-1274, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Cholinergic transmission plays a critical role in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, affecting processes such as learning, memory, and inflammation. Conventional cholinergic drugs generally suffer from poor selectivity and temporal precision, leading to undesired effects and limited therapeutic efficacy. Photopharmacology aims to

Nicotinic receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Regulation of normal or abnormal behaviour is critically controlled by the central serotonergic systems. Recent evidence has suggested that serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission dysfunction contributes to a variety of pathological conditions, including ...

Empirical Derivation and Prediction of Treatment Trajectories in Harmonized AUD Clinical Trial Datasets

open access: yesAddiction Biology, Volume 30, Issue 7, July 2025.
Using a data‐driven approach, we identified three clusters of alcohol consumption at the end of treatment for AUD that were associated with unique drinking trajectories and sex‐specific differences. We predicted these clusters using clinical feature data and highlight the utility of data‐driven methods for deriving AUD‐related phenotypes.
