Glutamate secretion and metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 expression during Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection promotes cell proliferation. [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is etiologically associated with endothelial Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and B-cell proliferative primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), common malignancies seen in immunocompromised HIV-1 infected patients.

An Essential Role of Fyn in the Modulation of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 in Neurons. [PDF]
AbstractFyn is a member of the Src family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases and is broadly expressed in the CNS. As a synapse-enriched kinase, Fyn interacts with and phosphorylates local substrates to regulate synaptic transmission and plasticity, although our knowledge of specific targets of Fyn at synaptic sites remains incomplete and the accurate role

Surface clustering of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 induced by long Homer proteins [PDF]
Background Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) regulate neuronal excitability and synaptic strength. The group I mGluRs, mGluR1 and 5, are widespread in the brain and localize to post-synaptic sites. The Homer protein family regulates group I mGluR

Metabotropic glutamate receptor-1 regulates inflammation in triple negative breast cancer. [PDF]
AbstractBreast cancer remains a major cause of death among women. 15% of these cancers are triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), an aggressive subtype of breast cancer for which no current effective targeted therapy exists. We have previously demonstrated a role for mGluR1 in mediating tumor cell growth, endothelial cell proliferation, and tumor ...

Cys-140 Is Critical for Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor-1 Dimerization [PDF]
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) expresses at the cell surface as disulfide-linked dimers and can be reduced to monomers with sulfhydryl reagents. To identify the dimerization domain, we transiently expressed in HEK-293 cells a truncated version of mGluR1 (RhodC-R1) devoid of the extracellular domain (ECD).

A-Kinase Anchoring Protein 79/150 Scaffolds Transient Receptor Potential A 1 Phosphorylation and Sensitization by Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation [PDF]
Mechanical pain serves as a base clinical symptom for many of the world’s most debilitating syndromes. Ion channels expressed by peripheral sensory neurons largely contribute to mechanical hypersensitivity.

Cholesterol Dependence of the Conformational Changes in Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 [PDF]
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 ...
