The Role of Glutamate Receptors in Epilepsy [PDF]
Glutamate is an essential excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, playing an indispensable role in neuronal development and memory formation. The dysregulation of glutamate receptors and the glutamatergic system is involved in numerous

The role of glutamate receptors in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment
Glutamate, as one of the most important carbon sources in the TCA cycle, is central in metabolic processes that will subsequently influence tumor progression.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors [PDF]
Background: C. elegans encodes three metabotropic glutamate receptors: mgl-1, mgl-2, and mgl-3. Results: mgl-1 and mgl-3, but not mgl-2, modulate activity in the neural circuit underlying feeding behavior.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors Inhibit Microglial Glutamate Release [PDF]
Pro-inflammatory stimuli evoke an export of glutamate from microglia that is sufficient to contribute to excitotoxicity in neighbouring neurons. Since microglia also express various glutamate receptors themselves, we were interested in the potential ...

A Review of Molecular Imaging of Glutamate Receptors
Molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a well-established and important in vivo technique to evaluate fundamental biological processes and unravel the role of neurotransmitter ...

Emerging Trends in Pain Modulation by Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors
Pain is an essential protective mechanism meant to prevent tissue damages in organisms. On the other hand, chronic or persistent pain caused, for example, by inflammation or nerve injury is long lasting and responsible for long-term disability in ...

Ubiquitin-dependent trafficking and turnover of ionotropic glutamate receptors
Changes in synaptic strength underlie the basis of learning and memory and are controlled, in part, by the insertion or removal of AMPA-type glutamate receptors at the postsynaptic membrane of excitatory synapses.

Glutamate, Glutamate Receptors, and Downstream Signaling Pathways [PDF]
Glutamate is a nonessential amino acid, a major bioenergetic substrate for proliferating normal and neoplastic cells, and an excitatory neurotransmitter that is actively involved in biosynthetic, bioenergetic, metabolic, and oncogenic signaling pathways. Glutamate signaling activates a family of receptors consisting of metabotropic glutamate receptors (

Most excitatory impulses received by neurons are mediated by ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs). These receptors are located at the apex and play an important role in memory, neuronal development, and synaptic plasticity.
