Lithium affects cell cycle progression in Eca-109 cells

Groups	Distribution in cell cycle (%)1
	G0/G1	S	G2/M
0 h	59.6	28.5	11.9
2 h	53.6	33.6	12.8
4 h	47.4a	39.4a	13.2
6 h	43.1a	42.5a	14.5
24 h	22.1a	31.5	46.4a

¹Lithium reduced the G₀/G₁ phase population sharply and increased the population in G₂/M phase accordingly.

^aP < 0.05 vs the control group.
