Striatal dopamine and its metabolites were studied in rats given lithium chloride in the diet. Results showed an increase in homovanillic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid levels but no significant change in dopamine concentration after 3 weeks of lithium administration. There was no change in
It has been proposed that lithium acts by inhibiting inositol monophosphatase, thereby lowering tissue inositol levels. We therefore studied inositol effects on a prominent lithium side-effect, polyuria-polydipsia, in rats and in humans. Rats were treated with daily injections i.p. LiCl for 14 days
