Allosteric activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 [PDF]
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is a class C G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) with both an extracellular ligand binding site and an allosteric intrahelical chamber located similarly to the orthosteric ligand binding site of Class A GPCRs ...

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 may be involved in macrophage plasticity [PDF]
Background Macrophages are a functionally heterogeneous cell population and depending on microenvironments they polarize in two main groups: M1 and M2. Glutamic acid and glutamate receptors may participate in the regulation of macrophage plasticity.

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.

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.

Biased agonism and allosteric modulation of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5. [PDF]
Metabotropic glutamate receptors belong to class C G-protein-coupled receptors and consist of eight subtypes that are ubiquitously expressed throughout the central nervous system. In recent years, the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) has

The role of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 in nicotine addiction [PDF]
AbstractThis review summarizes the evidence for the potential involvement of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) in the development of nicotine addiction. Nicotine is consumed worldwide and is highly addictive. Previous research has extensively investigated the role of dopamine in association with reward learning and addiction, which has ...
