Lithium discriminates between muscarinic receptor subtypes on guinea pig hippocampal neurons in vitro.

abstract：:A growing body of evidence has demonstrated a role for group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in the reinforcing effects of cocaine. These receptors are important given their location in limbic-related areas, and their ability to control the release of glutamate and other neurotransmitters. They are also p...
