title: Effect of dexamethasone and reserpine on brain synaptosomal phosphorylation in lithium treated rats.
abstract: Increase in brain synaptosomal protein phosphorylation after lithium treatment was unaffected by prior treatment with dexamethasone, but decreased after reserpine administration indicating the involvement of neurotransmitters in lithium induced increase in synaptosomal phosphorylation.
