Operant sensation seeking requires metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5). [PDF]
Pharmacological and genetic studies have suggested that the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is critically involved in mediating the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse, but not food. The purpose of this study was to use mGluR5 knockout (KO),

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5: a target for migraine therapy [PDF]
Many patients suffering from migraine gain little relief from existing treatments partly because many existing acute and preventive therapies used in migraine have been adopted from other neurologic conditions such as depression or epilepsy.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 5 in Alcohol-Induced Negative Affect [PDF]
Allosteric modulators of metabotropic glutamate 5 receptors (mGlu5 receptors) have been identified as a promising treatment to independently alleviate both negative affective states and ethanol-seeking and intake.

Apo-state structure of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 transmembrane domain obtained using a photoswitchable ligand. [PDF]
Abstract Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5) is implicated in various neurodegenerative disorders, making it an attractive drug target. Although several ligand‐bound crystal structures of mGlu5 exist, their apo‐state crystal structure remains unknown.

Sequences within the C Terminus of the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 (mGluR5) Are Responsible for Inner Nuclear Membrane Localization* [PDF]
Traditionally, G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) are thought to be located on the cell surface where they transmit extracellular signals to the cytoplasm.

The metabotropic glutamate 5 receptor modulates extinction and reinstatement of methamphetamine-seeking in mice. [PDF]
Methamphetamine (METH) is a highly addictive psychostimulant with no therapeutics registered to assist addicts in discontinuing use. Glutamatergic dysfunction has been implicated in the development and maintenance of addiction.

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 knockout rescues obesity phenotype in a mouse model of Huntington’s disease [PDF]
Obesity represents a global health problem and is characterized by metabolic dysfunctions and a low-grade chronic inflammatory state, which can increase the risk of comorbidities, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes and insulin resistance.

Lower Limbic Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 Availability in Alcohol Dependence [PDF]
Animal studies suggest an important role for the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) in the pathophysiology of alcohol dependence, but direct human evidence is lacking. The goal of this study was to investigate cerebral mGlu5 availability in alcohol-dependent subjects versus controls using 18F-3-fluoro-5-[(pyridin-3-yl)ethynyl ...
