Lithium reduces BACE1 overexpression, beta amyloid accumulation, and spatial learning deficits in mice with traumatic brain injury.

MouseTBIUnspecifiedC57BL/6maleIntraperitoneal1.5 mEq/kgFirst dose 15 min after traumatic brain injury

Model: Controlled traumatic brain injury in mice

Lithium attenuated the injury induced increases in beta amyloid load, amyloid precursor protein accumulation and BACE1 overexpression at 3 days, reduced thalamic Tau phosphorylation, and significantly improved spatial learning and memory in the Y-maze and Morris water maze alongside greater hippoca…
