abstract = {This functional magnetic resonance imaging study
investigates the effects of nicotine in a cued target
detection task when changing cue reliability. Fifteen
non-smoking volunteers were studied under placebo and
nicotine (Nicorette polacrilex gum 1 and 2 mg). Validly and
invalidly cued trials were arranged in blocks with high,
middle and low cue reliability. Two effects of nicotine were
investigated: its influence on i) parietal cortex activity
underlying the processing of invalid vs. valid trials (i.e.
validity effect) and ii) neural activity in the context of
low, middle and high informative value of the cue (i.e. cue
reliability effect). Nicotine did not affect behavioral
performance. However, nicotine reduced the difference in the
blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) signal between
invalid and valid trials in the right intraparietal sulcus.
The reduction of parietal activity in invalid trials was
smaller in the low cue reliability condition. The same
posterior parietal region exhibited a nicotinic modulation
of BOLD activity in valid trials which was dependent on cue
reliability: Nicotine specifically enhanced the neural
activity during valid trials in the context of low cue
reliability, i.e. when subjects are already in a state of
low certainty. We speculate that the right intraparietal
sulcus might be part of two networks working in parallel:
one responsible for reorienting attention and the other for
the cholinergic modulation of cue reliability. By reducing
the use of the cue, nicotine modulates parietal activity
related to reorienting attention in conditions with higher
cue certainty. On the other hand, nicotine increases
parietal activity in states of low certainty. This enhanced
activation might influence brain regions, such as the
posterior cingulate, directly involved in the processing of
cue reliability.},
