these experiments examined the effects of pre-test intra dorsal hippocampus (intra-ca1) administration of gabaa receptor agonist and antagonist, muscimol and bicuculline respectively, on state-dependent learning induced by lithium. male nmri mice were trained in a one-trial step-down inhibitory avoidance task, and immediately after training they received ip injections of either saline (10 ml/kg...

The bonding in metals is analysed within the framework of PATMOS (Perturbed AToms MOlecules and Solids) model. electronic binding energy per atom written as a sum distortion atoms partitioned interaction comprising Coulombic, exchange correlation terms. adopted physical model infinite system, spherical embedding reference unit cell. Correlation energies are calculated by second-order Møller-Ple...

objective(s) it is believed that the mesenchymal stem cell (msc) differentiation and proliferation are the results of activation of wnt signaling pathway. on the other hand, lithium chloride is reported to be able to activate this pathway. the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of lithium on in vitro proliferation and bone differentiation of marrow-derived msc. materials and ...

objective: the influence of cholinergic drugs on lithium-induced statedependent learning has been investigated in adult male mice. method: a single-trial step-down inhibitory avoidance task was selected. the drugs used in the study were lithium chloride physostigmine , nicotine hydrogen tartrate and scopolamine hydrobromide, atropine sulphate. the drugs were administrated through the peritoneal...

the effect of neuroloptics. carbamacepine and hensmliacepines in treatment of 8.3 patients with acute mania was studied. according to drug types. patients were divided into 5 groups: 1) lithium combined with ilubupridol. 2) lithium combined with one plxenoshiacine 3) lithium combined with two phenothiazines. 4) lithium combined with cubumazepine and 5) lithium combined with benzxliazepines no s...

in the present study, the interactions of three different lithium species li+, li3+ and ch3li with several different sites of the most stable tautomers of dna nucleo-bases are presented. this investigation is based on the results of thermochemical properties, quantum theory of atoms in molecules (qtaim) and natural bond orbital (nbo) analysis, obtained at b3lyp/6-311++g(d,p) level of theory. th...

We report on the structural and electronic properties and chemical bonding in a series of lithium and gold alloyed boron oxide clusters: B2O3(-), LiB2O3(-), AuB2O3(-), and LiAuB2O3(-). The clusters have been produced by laser vaporization and characterized using photoelectron spectroscopy, in combination with the Coalescence Kick and Basin Hopping global-minimum searches and density-functional ...

Lithium ion battery electrodes were manufactured using a new, completely dry powder painting process. The solvents used for conventional slurry-cast electrodes have been completely removed. Thermal activation time has been greatly reduced due to the time and resource demanding solvent evaporation process needed with slurry-cast electrode manufacturing being replaced by a hot rolling process. It...
