Atypical signaling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 in human melanoma cells
Biochemical Pharmacology, 2015The metabotropic glutamate 1 (mGlu1) receptor has emerged as a novel target for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and various other cancers. Our laboratory has demonstrated that a selective, non-competitive mGlu1 receptor antagonist slows human melanoma growth in vitro and in vivo.

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 in human malignancies
2013The role of the glutamatergic system in cancer cell homeostasis has expanded exponentially over the last decade. Once thought to participate only in synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability, the presence of functional glutamate receptors has since been demonstrated in peripheral tissues. Most notable is the implication of glutamatergic signaling

Relationship between type 1 metabotropic glutamate receptors and cerebellar ataxia
Journal of Neurology, 2016Imaging of type 1 metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR1) has recently become possible using positron emission tomography (PET). We aimed to examine the relationship between mGluR1 and cerebellar ataxia. Families with spinocerebellar ataxia type 19/22 (SCA19/22) and SCA6, six patients with sporadic SCA, and 26 healthy subjects underwent PET using an ...

Melanoma is the aberrant proliferation of melanocytes, the cells in the skin responsible for pigment production. In the United States the current lifetime risk of melanoma development is 1 in 57 in males and 1 in 81 in females. In its early stages melanoma can be surgically removed with great success; however, advanced stages of melanoma have a high ...

Cholesterol Dependence of the Conformational Changes in Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1
AbstractMetabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are class C G protein-coupled receptors that function as obligate dimers in regulating neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system. The mGluR1 subtype has been shown to be modulated by the membrane lipid environment, particularly cholesterol, though the molecular mechanisms ...Ugochi H, Isu +5 more

Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are a family of G protein-coupled receptors characterized by a large, extracellular N-terminal domain comprising the glutamate-binding site. In the current study, we examined the pharmacological profile and site of action of the non-amino-acid antagonist 7-hydroxyiminocyclopropan[b]chromen-1a-carboxylic acid ...

A Main Role for Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 in the Neuroprotective Effect of Estrogen.
2012Estrogen exerts neuroprotective activity under different experimental conditions through classical nuclear receptors, but mainly receptors expressed at the cell surface. Transducing mechanisms activated by these membrane estrogen receptors in the brain have been intensely investigated and, among others, interaction with G-protein coupled, metabotropic ...
