Abstract
Mood stabilizers are a heterogeneous class of drugs having antidepressant and anti-manic effects in bipolar disorders, depression and schizophrenia. Despite wide clinical applications, the mechanisms underlying their shared actions and therapeutic specificity are unknown. Here, we examine the effects of the structurally unrelated mood stabilizers lamotrigine, lithium and valproate on G protein and beta-arrestin-dependent components of dopamine D2 receptor signaling and assess their contribution to the behavioral effects of these drugs. When administered chronically to mice lacking either D2 receptors or beta-arrestin 2, lamotrigine, lithium and valproate failed to affect Akt/GSK3 signaling as they do in normal littermates. This lack of effect on signaling resulted in a loss of responsiveness to mood stabilizers in tests assessing "antimanic" or "antidepressant"-like behavioral drug effects. This shows that mood stabilizers lamotrigine, lithium and valproate can exert behavioral effects in mice by disrupting the beta-arrestin 2-mediated regulation of Akt/GSK3 signaling by D2 dopamine receptors, thereby suggesting a shared mechanism for mood stabilizer selectivity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
