Unlike peptides or other complex organic molecules, lithium is very non-specific. If it’s present at levels high enough to noticeably inhibit a specific enzyme, it also inhibits lots of other stuff a similar amount.
I’d recommend being less credulous about papers on Alzheimer’s, considering how the incentives in that field have been.
I don’t really see how fraudulent academics could be cooking the books on dramatically reduced dementia rates in all the Texas counties with anomalously high lithium in drinking water? Which I thought was one of the most compelling bits of evidence.
