1 To understand the mechanism underlying the neurotoxicity of lithium ion, we investigated the inhibition of the nerve growth factor-induced neuronal differentiation of rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells induced by treatment with LiCl. Lithium Chloride nerve growth factor Rattus norvegicus
2 Incubation with 0.1-3 mM LiCl from 30 min before nerve growth factor (NGF) treatment attenuated neurite outgrowth. Lithium Chloride nerve growth factor Rattus norvegicus
3 Incubation with 0.1-3 mM LiCl from 30 min before nerve growth factor (NGF) treatment attenuated neurite outgrowth. Lithium Chloride nerve growth factor Rattus norvegicus
4 These observations, that chronic treatment with LiCl inhibits the NGF-induced neuronal differentiation in a transcription-dependent manner and inhibits phosphoinositide metabolism, suggest a possible causal relationship between these two events. Lithium Chloride nerve growth factor Rattus norvegicus
