Genetic inactivation of mGlu5 receptor improves motor coordination in the Grm1crv4 mouse model of SCAR13 ataxia

Neurobiology of Disease, 2018
Deleterious mutations in the glutamate receptor metabotropic 1 gene (GRM1) cause a recessive form of cerebellar ataxia, SCAR13. GRM1 and GRM5 code for the metabotropic glutamate type 1 (mGlu1) and type 5 (mGlu5) receptors, respectively.

xCT-mediated glutamate excretion in white adipocytes stimulates interferon-γ production by natural killer cells in obesity

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Obesity-mediated hypoxic stress underlies inflammation, including interferon (IFN)-γ production by natural killer (NK) cells in white adipose tissue. However, the effects of obesity on NK cell IFN-γ production remain obscure.

Homer 1a uncouples metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 from postsynaptic effectors [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) and Homer proteins play critical roles in neuronal functions including plasticity, nociception, epilepsy, and drug addiction. Furthermore, Homer proteins regulate mGluR1/5 function by acting as adapters and facilitating coupling to effectors such as the inositol triphosphate receptor.

Participation of the Cholinergic System in Ameliorating Effect of Vasopressin Fragment by Group I Metabotropic Glutamate–Receptor Blockade

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
The effect of [pGlu4,Cyt6,Arg8]-vasopressin fragment 4-9 (AVP4-9) on group I metabotropic glutamate (mGlu1) receptor antagonist–induced memory deficits was studied using 8-arm radial maze performance with 4 arms baited.

Reduction in Phencyclidine Induced Sensorimotor Gating Deficits in the Rat Following Increased System Xc − Activity in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]

, 2013
Rationale: Aspects of schizophrenia, including deficits in sensorimotor gating, have been linked to glutamate dysfunction and/or oxidative stress in the prefrontal cortex. System xc −, a cystine–glutamate antiporter, is a poorly understood mechanism that

Metabotropic glutamate 5 receptors regulate sensitivity to ethanol in mice [PDF]

The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2008
The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5) has been implicated in ethanol- and drug-seeking behaviours in rodent studies. Here we examine a number of ethanol-related behavioural assays in mice lacking mGlu5 and wild-type littermates. In a two-bottle free-choice paradigm, mGlu5-deficient mice consumed less ethanol with a reduced preference compared ...

Reduced Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Type 5 Availability in the Epileptogenic Hippocampus: An in vitro Study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
Abnormalities in the expression of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5 (mGluR5) have been observed in the hippocampus of patients with drug-resistant mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (mTLE).

AstroWars: the return of the astrocytic metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 [PDF]

The Journal of Physiology
AbstractIn the brain, astrocytes express glutamate receptors to detect glutamatergic signalling at synapses. Numerous studies have been conducted to characterize the types and levels of receptor expression, their physiological properties and functional roles. The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is particularly noteworthy.
