Summary

A robust neuroprotective effect of lithium in the excitotoxic process induced by KA in mouse hippocampus was demonstrated via modulation of calcium entry and the subsequent inhibition of the calpain pathway, suggesting that it may be useful as a possible therapeutic strategy for Alzheimer's disease.
