Norbin Is an Endogenous Regulator of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 Signaling [PDF]

Science, 2009
Norbin Knockout Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are critical neurotransmitter sensors implicated in central neuronal functions like learning and memory and in diseases of the nervous system. Wang et al. (p.

Incentive learning underlying cocaine relapse requires mGluR5 receptors located on dopamine D1 receptor-expressing neurons [PDF]

, 2010
Understanding the psychobiological basis of relapse remains a challenge in developing therapies for drug addiction. Relapse in cocaine addiction often occurs following exposure to environmental stimuli previously associated with drug taking.

Antinociceptive actions of honokiol and magnolol on glutamatergic and inflammatory pain

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2009
The antinociceptive effects of honokiol and magnolol, two major bioactive constituents of the bark of Magnolia officinalis, were investigated on animal paw licking responses and thermal hyperalgesia induced by glutamate receptor agonists including ...

GLS1‐Mediated Redundancy in Glutamate Accelerates Arterial Calcification via Activating NMDAR/Ca2+/β‐Catenin Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GLS1 is a novel contributor to arterial calcification. GLS1‐catalyzed glutamate exerts the promoting effects on osteogenic reprogramming in arteries. NMDAR, a glutamate receptor, is also activated and overexpressed during arterial calcification.

Functional metabotropic glutamate receptors 1 and 5 are expressed in murine podocytes [PDF]

Kidney International, 2012
In non-neuronal cells, glutamate is an extracellular signaling mediator. Since podocytes have glutamate-containing vesicles, we sought to determine glutamate receptor presence and action in glomerular cells. The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) 1, 5, 6, and 8 were found to be expressed in mouse brain and glomeruli; predominantly in podocytes ...

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

NMDA Receptor-Dependent Metaplasticity by High-Frequency Magnetic Stimulation

Neural Plasticity, 2014
High-frequency magnetic stimulation (HFMS) can elicit N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at Schaffer collateral-CA1 pyramidal cell synapses.

Extensive neuroadaptive changes in cortical gene-transcript expressions of the glutamate system in response to repeated intermittent MDMA administration in adolescent rats

BMC Neuroscience, 2008
Background Many studies have focused on the implication of the serotonin and dopamine systems in neuroadaptive responses to the recreational drug 3,4-methylenedioxy-metamphetamine (MDMA).

Unraveling Neurodevelopment: Synergistic Effects of Intrinsic Genetic Programs and Extrinsic Environmental Cues

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the regulation of intrinsic and extrinsic signals during neurodevelopment. Intrinsic genetic signals from NSCs, in conjunction with cues from microglia and blood vessels, collaboratively regulate the proliferation of NSCs, their fate determination, synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, neuronal survival, and death, as well as communication ...

Hippocampal neuronal cells that accumulate α-synuclein fragments are more vulnerable to Aβ oligomer toxicity via mGluR5--implications for dementia with Lewy bodies. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundIn dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) abnormal interactions between α-synuclein (α-syn) and beta amyloid (Aβ) result in selective degeneration of neurons in the neocortex, limbic system and striatum.
