Summary

The proposed clinical studies will analyze the interactions between nicotine, alterations in endocrine hormones, mood and cardiovascular measures. They also intend to examine the contribution of gender and menstrual cycle phase. These studies hypothesize that this novel focus on nicotine's rapid hormonal, cardiovascular and subjective effects will be important for developing novel biologic approaches to treatment for nicotine abuse and dependence as well as advancing our understanding of the neurobiology of nicotine reinforcement.

Conditions

  • Nicotine Dependence

Interventions

OTHER

Nicotine

Two doses of nicotine will be utilized: a commercially available, high-yield nicotine cigarette (Marlboro Red; Phillip Morris brand) and a denicotinized cigarette (Murty Pharmaceuticals Inc., Lexington, KY). The high dose cigarettes contain 15.48 mg of nicotine and 16 mg of tar based on analysis by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH, 1998). The low nicotine cigarettes contain 1.1 mg of nicotine and deliver 0.1 mg of nicotine and 2.8 mg of tar based on analyses provided by the manufacturer.
