Molecular Targets of Lithium Action
Abstract
Lithium is highly effective in the treatment of bipolar disorder and also has multiple effects on embryonic development, glycogen synthesis, hematopoiesis, and other processes. However, the mechanism of lithium action is still unclear. A number of enzymes have been proposed as potential targets of lithium action, including inositol monophosphatase, a family of structurally related phosphomonoesterases, and the protein kinase glycogen synthase kinase-3. These potential targets are widely expressed, require metal ions for catalysis, and are generally inhibited by lithium in an uncompetitive manner, most likely by displacing a divalent cation. Thus, the challenge is to determine which target, if any, is responsible for a given response to lithium in cells. Comparison of lithium effects with genetic disruption of putative target molecules has helped to validate these targets, and the use of alternative inhibitors of a given target can also lend strong support for or against a proposed mechanism of lithium action. In this review, lithium sensitive enzymes are discussed, and a number of criteria are proposed to evaluate which of these enzymes are involved in the response to lithium in a given setting.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
