Although lithium is the oldest treatment for bipolar disorder, its mechanism of action is still not well understood. Several possible mechanisms exist and are shown here. Lithium may work by affecting signal transduction, perhaps through its inhibition of second messenger enzymes such as inositol monophosphatase, by modulation of G proteins, or by interaction at various sites within downstream signal transduction cascades, including glycogen synthetase kinase 3 (GSK3).
