Regulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Signaling by Nicotine in a Manner Dependent on Acetylcholine-and/or β-Adrenergic-Receptors in Human Lung Cancer Cells
In addition to binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), nicotine is known to regulate the β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) promoting oncogenic signaling. Using A549 (p53 wild-type) and H1299 (p53-null) lung cancer cells, we show that nicotine treatment led to: increased adrenaline/noradr...
