Reduced Expression of Cerebral Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 5 in Men with Fragile X Syndrome

Brain Sciences, 2020
Glutamatergic receptor expression is mostly unknown in adults with fragile X syndrome (FXS). Favorable behavioral effects of negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) in fmr1 knockout (KO) mouse ...

Psychedelics as pharmacotherapeutics for substance use disorders: A scoping review on clinical trials and perspectives on underlying neurobiology

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 binding in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder [PDF]

The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2014
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a disabling, mostly chronic, psychiatric condition with significant social and economic impairments and is a major public health issue. However, numerous patients are resistant to currently available pharmacological and psychological interventions.

Selective Disruption of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5-Homer Interactions Mimics Phenotypes of Fragile X Syndrome in Mice

Journal of Neuroscience, 2016
Altered function of the Gq-coupled, Group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptors, specifically mGlu5, is implicated in multiple mouse models of autism and intellectual disability.

Clioquinol as a new therapy in epilepsy: From preclinical evidence to a proof‐of‐concept clinical study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects >25 million people worldwide and is often associated with neuroinflammation. Increasing evidence links deficiency or malfunctioning of the enzyme phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), which converts 3‐phosphoglycerate to generate serine and the neurotransmitter glycine, with (drug‐resistant ...

WONOEP XVII appraisal: Targeting network excitability beyond the synapse ‐Neurotransmitter, ionic, and electro ‐diffusions

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
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

Localization and role of metabotropic glutamate receptors subtype 5 in the gastrointestinal tract

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) is a Group I mGlu subfamily of receptors coupled to the inositol trisphosphate/diacylglycerol pathway. Like other mGluR subtypes, mGluR5s contain a phylogenetically conserved, extracellular orthosteric binding site and a more variable allosteric binding site, located on the heptahelical transmembrane ...

Central Amygdala Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 in the Modulation of Visceral Pain [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2012
Painful bladder syndrome is a debilitating condition that affects 3–6% of women in the United States. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that changes in CNS processing are key to the development of chronic bladder pain conditions but little is known regarding the underlying cellular, molecular, and neuronal mechanisms. Using a mouse model of distention-

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
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 ...

Adaptations to hypoxia in the vertebrate retina

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Most animals, including mammals, are susceptible to the damaging effects of hypoxia or ischaemia, where the result is neuronal cell death in the brain. By contrast, some neurons of the mammalian retina are less sensitive to hypoxia. In both brain and retina, neurons may survive if first preconditioned with ischaemia.
