Imaging of type 1 metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR1) has recently become possible using positron emission tomography (PET). To date, little evidence exists on the role of mGluR1 in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Background and Purpose Riluzole, approved for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), has a glutamate‐modulating profile favourable for mitigating opioid addiction. It reduces neuronal glutamate release and enhances glutamate reuptake, offering advantages over agents that only increase glutamate reuptake.

The synapses between parallel fibers and Purkinje cells play a pivotal role in cerebellar function. They are intricately governed by a variety of presynaptic receptors, notably by type 4 metabotropic glutamate (mGlu4) receptors and type 1 adenosine (A1 ...

Abstract Epilepsy affects approximately 1% of the population worldwide, and although medications are effective in the majority of cases, seizures persist in approximately 30% of patients. Despite the effort to develop new antiseizure drugs, the rate of pharmacoresistance in patients has not diminished over the past 3 decades. There is thus a real unmet

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

The group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, mGluR1 and mGluR5, exhibit differences in their regulation of synaptic plasticity, suggesting that these receptors may subserve separate functional roles in information storage.

Astrocytes: Orchestrators of brain gas exchange and oxygen homeostasis
Abstract figure legend Oxygen and carbon dioxide enter the body via breathing; in the brain astrocytes play a key role balancing oxygen delivery with carbon dioxide removal. Abstract If we consider neurons like muscles during exercise, the demand for oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination is constantly changing.
