Lithium orotate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Lithium orotate is an orally active lithium supplement with reduced binding that can bypass amyloid sequestration in AD mice models. Lithium orotate can prevent Aβ plaque deposition and phospho-tau accumulation and reverse AD pathology, neuroinflammatory changes and memory loss in AD mice models and ageing wild-type mice. Lithium orotate can be used for the research of alcoholism and Alzheimer’s disease.

Biological Activity
Lithium orotate (0-500 μM; 16 h) has low binding ability to synthetic human Aβ1-42 fibrils and oligomers[2].
Lithium orotate (20-500 μM; 6 h pre-treatment) promotes microglial uptake and degradation of Aβ42 in BV2 microglial cells[2].
