Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
4.1.1.15 additional information nicotine decreases inhibitory DNA-methyltransferase 1 mRNA and protein and increases GAD67 expression in the mouse frontal cortex, it diminishes the level of cytosine-5-methylation in the GAD67 promoter and prevents the methionine-induced hypermethylation of the same promoter. Nicotine effects are prevented by pretreatment with mecamylamine, overview Mus musculus

Expression

EC Number Organism Comment Expression
2.1.1.37 Mus musculus nicotine decreases DNA methyltransferase 1 expression in in cortical and hippocampal but not in striatal GABAergic interneurons, while DNMT1 mRNA content in the liver fails to change after nicotine treatment, overview. Mecamylamine but not hexamethonium blocks nicotine-induced downregulation of DNMT1 expression. The downregulation proceeds via selective stimulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, nAChR, overview down
