Popis: Abstract Cigarette smoking remains an important health concern and is still a leading cause of preventable mortality. Nicotine is the substance responsible for sustained tobacco use and dependence. Identification of biomarkers underlying nicotine dependence behavior is important to identify people at risk for this dependence. In the present study, we identified biochemical and genetic biomarkers of nicotine dependence detected by the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTDN) in Mexican smokers. The nicotine metabolites nicotine‐N′‐oxide, trans‐3′‐hydroxycotinine‐glucuronide (3HC‐O‐Gluc), and nicotine‐N‐Gluc (Gluc) were useful to differentiate nicotine‐dependent from non‐dependent subjects (p
