Nicotinic α7 receptors on cholinergic neurons in the striatum mediate cocaine-reinforcement, but not food reward

The neurotransmitter acetylcholine has since long been implicated in reward learning and drug addiction. However, the role of specific cholinergic receptor subtypes on different neuronal populations remain elusive. Here, we studied the function of nicotinic acetylcholinergic alpha 7 receptors (α7 nA...
