12±0.15). Furthermore, nicotine induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest especially at G2/M Phase. The qRT-PCR revealed that nicotine increased the mRNA levels of α7nAChR as well as caspase-3 and suppressed the expression of cyclin B1. Treatment with α7-siRNA abolished these effects of nicotine. Conclusion These experiments determined that upregulation of α7nAChR by nicotine inhibits HepG2 cells proliferation and induces their apoptosis. These effects blocked by treatment with α7-siRNA, which indicates the involvement of α7nA
