Novel expression patterns of metabotropic glutamate receptor 6 in the zebrafish nervous system. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2012 The metabotropic glutamate receptor 6 (mGluR6 or GRM6) belongs to the class III of the metabotropic glutamate receptor family. It is the only known mGluR that mediates direct synaptic transmission in the nervous system and is thought to mediate the ON ...

The Cold Case of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 6: Unjust Detention in the Retina? [PDF]
Curr Neuropharmacol, 2020 It is a common opinion that metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 6 (mGluR6) is expressed exclusively in the retina, and in particular in the dendrites of ON-bipolar cells.

A Retinal-Specific Regulator of G-Protein Signaling Interacts with Gαoand Accelerates an Expressed Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 6 Cascade [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2004 Go is the most abundant G-protein in the brain, but its regulators are essentially unknown. In retina, Gαo1 is obligatory in mediating the metabotropic glutamate receptor 6 (mGluR6)-initiated ON response. To identify the interactors of Go, we conducted a

Involvement of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5, AKT/PI3K Signaling and NF-κB pathway in methamphetamine-mediated increase in IL-6 and IL-8 expression in astrocytes [PDF]
Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2012 Methamphetamine (MA) is one of the commonly used illicit drugs and the central nervous system toxicity of MA is well documented. The mechanisms contributing to this toxicity have not been fully elucidated.

Role of Conserved Transmembrane Domain Cysteines in Activation of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 6 [PDF]
Medicinal chemistry, 2012 Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 6 (mGluR6) is a Class C type G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) uniquely expressed on retinal bipolar cells. mGluR6 plays a key role in dim-light vision but little is known about its structure and function. Here, we characterized the role of the three transmembrane (TM) cysteines in activation through site ...
