Abstract
We proposed that this reaction proceeded by the consecutive cyclization to aziridines via the SN2 process involving the activation of the C-Br bond based on the intermolecular Br…Li(+) coordination, as a result of studies of reaction mechanisms....

Abstract
The aims of the study were to develop and test multi-phase glaze coatings for zirconia restorations, so that the surface could be etched and adhesively bonded.
Zirconia disc specimens (n=125, 16 mm x 1 mm) were cut from cylinders of Y-TZP (yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals) ZS-Blank...

Abstract
This is a short overview focusing on the biochemical interactions underlying the protective effects of lithium at the neuronal level. These include lithium modulation of autophagy, growth factors, excitotoxicity, and a variety of mechanisms underlying cell death, neurogenesis, and neuronal different...

Abstract
Depressive phases are the most prevalent component of bipolar disorders, even with modern treatment. Bipolar depressive morbidity is often misdiagnosed and is limited in response to available treatments. These conditions are especially debilitating and are associated with psychiatric comorbidity, su...

Abstract
Abstract
A total of 79 lithium patients and 85 nonlithium patients were included. The prevalence of hypothyroidism (subclinical and clinical) was 35.4% among the lithium patients, with women having a prevalence as high as 41.3% and men 12.6%. In the nonlithium patients, the prevalence was 7.1%; very close to...

Abstract
A study by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the acetonitrile diffusion into a polypyrrole film was carried out with atomic detail in a 0.1N lithium perchlorate solution. From the simulated trajectories, the acetonitrile behavior was estimated from bulk solution to the interior of the polypyrrol...

Abstract
A novel, totally regioselective transformation of aromatic N-4-methoxyphenylaziridine 2-carboxamides into 2-aminoamides promoted by active manganese (Mn*) is reported. alpha-Amino ketones can be readily obtained by reaction of morpholine-derived 2-aminoamides with organolithium compounds.

Abstract
We report that both drugs significantly reduced (1) spatial memory impairment induced by amyloid burden; (2) Abeta aggregates and Abeta oligomers; and (3) astrocytic and microglia activation. They also prevented changes in presynaptic and postsynaptic marker proteins. Finally, both drugs activate Wn...

Abstract
We examined the effects of atovaquone on cellular respiration and in vitro growth of C. albicans to explore a new therapeutic possibility for fungal infections. Atovaquone strongly inhibited glucose-dependent cellular respiration similarly to antimycin A, stigmatellin, and myxothiazol, specific bc(1...

Abstract
We will describe a turn-on fluorescent sensor for the pharmacologically important lithium ion. The sensor can be used in purely aqueous solution, and it displays a very high selectivity for lithium over sodium and magnesium ions. It is based on a metallacrown receptor unit, which can be assembled in...

Abstract
We discuss evidence that Li(+) has a substantial effect on PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), an important signal molecule within the nervous system. As seen for Ins(1,4,5)P(3) signalling, suppression of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) signalling also occurs via an inositol-depletion mechanism. This has implications for the cell...

We studied Impa1 (encoding IMPase) and Smit1 (sodium-myo-inositol transporter 1)-knockout mice. In brains of adult homozygous Impa1-knockout mice, IMPase activity was found to be decreased; however, inositol levels were not found to be altered. Behavioural analysis indicated decreased immobility in...

Abstract
The inositol-depletion hypothesis was suggested to explain the therapeutic mechanism of mood-stabilizing drugs. Focus was previously on the phosphatidylinositol signalling pathway and on the regulatory roles of Ins(3,4,5)P(3) and DAG (diacylglycerol). Recent findings indicate that inositol and inosi...
