Posttranslational Modification Biology of Glutamate Receptors and Drug Addiction
Posttranslational covalent modifications of glutamate receptors remain a hot topic. Early studies have established that this family of receptors, including almost all ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptor subtypes, undergoes active ...

Metabotropic glutamate receptors in cancer [PDF]
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are widely known for their roles in synaptic signaling. However, accumulating evidence suggests roles of mGluRs in human malignancies in addition to synaptic transmission. Somatic cell homeostasis presents intriguing possibilities of mGluRs and glutamate signaling as novel targets for human cancers.

Astrocyte Glutamate Uptake and Signaling as Novel Targets for Antiepileptogenic Therapy
Astrocytes regulate and respond to extracellular glutamate levels in the central nervous system (CNS) via the Na+-dependent glutamate transporters glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1) and glutamate aspartate transporter (GLAST) and the metabotropic glutamate ...

Glutamate Receptors in Plants [PDF]
Ionotropic glutamate receptors function in animals as glutamate-gated non-selective cation channels. Numerous glutamate receptor-like (GLR) genes have been identified in plant genomes, and plant GLRs are predicted, on the basis of sequence homology, to retain ligand-binding and ion channel activity. Non-selective cation channels are ubiquitous in plant

Effects of glutamate receptor activation on NG2-glia in the rat optic nerve [PDF]
NG2-glia are a substantial population of cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that can be identified by their specific expression of the NG2 chondroitin sulphate (CSPG).

Although glutamate is one of the most important excitatory neurotransmitters of the central nervous system, its excessive extracellular concentration leads to uncontrolled continuous depolarization of neurons, a toxic process called, excitotoxicity.

Studies of NMDA receptor function and stoichiometry with truncated and tandem subunits [PDF]
The subunits that compose eukaryotic glutamate ion channel receptors have three transmembrane domains (TMs) and terminate with intracellular tails that are important for controlling channel expression and localization.
