Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 in Natural Killer Cells Attenuates Liver Fibrosis by Exerting Cytotoxicity to Activated Stellate Cells

Hepatology, 2021
The important roles of glutamate and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) in HSCs have recently been reported in various liver diseases; however, the mechanism linking the glutamine/glutamate metabolism and mGluR5 in liver fibrosis remains unclear.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 2002
Abstract Glutamate, like other neurotransmitters (acetylcholine, ATP, serotonine, glycine, GABA), acts on two main types of membrane receptors: ligand-gated channels, also called ionotropic receptors (iGluRs), and G protein coupled receptors also called metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs).

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

Amino Acids, 2007
l-Glutamate, one of the main neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS), acts on two groups of receptors: (a) a group of ionotropic receptors that includes N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA), α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA), and kainate receptors, and (2) a group of metabotropic receptors (mGluRs).

International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology. CXI. Pharmacology, Signaling, and Physiology of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

Pharmacological Reviews, 2020
Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors respond to glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain, mediating a modulatory role that is critical for higher-order brain functions such as learning and memory.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors and epilepsy

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2006
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play an important role in the initiation of ictal discharges by participating in the interictal-ictal transition, and may play a crucial role in recruiting normal brain tissue into synchronized discharges, thereby facilitating propagation of seizure activity.

Estrogen receptor signaling through metabotropic glutamate receptors

2020
As the non-nuclear initiated effects of steroid hormone signaling have become more widely accepted, there has been a need to define the novel mechanisms of hormone receptor action that account for these outcomes. One mechanism that has emerged is the coupling of classical estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) with metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs ...

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors and Neuronal Toxicity

1992
Specific glutamate receptors coupled to polyphosphoinositide (PPI) hydrolysis have been described in brain slices, cultured neurons, and astrocytes, and in amphibian oocytes injected with rat brain mRNA (Sladeczek et al., 1985; Nicoletti et al., 1986a,b; Sugiyama et al., 1987).

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors and Neurodegeneration

2004
Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors, which exert a modulatory effect on excitatory synaptic transmission, are considered as potential targets for neuroprotective drugs and the advent of potent and centrally available subtype-selective ligands has lead to an extensive investigation of the role of individual mGlu receptor subtypes in ...
