title: Nicotine inhibits estrogen response element binding in the rat brain.
abstract: General injection of nicotine induced an immediate and marked inhibition of estrogen response element (ERE) binding in the rat brain. Either mecamylamine or nifedipine fully antagonized the ERE binding-inhibiting effect of nicotine.
