Isotope-specific lithium bioactivity – physiological reality or laboratory oddity?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry
The efficacy of lithium in treating bipolar disorder is well established, yet its precise molecular mechanisms remain elusive. A frequently overlooked dimension is the natural occurrence of two stable lithium isotopes (6Li and 7Li), which differ ...
