Loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) in Parkinson's disease (PD) leads to augmentation of glutamatergic activity in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). Moreover, antagonizing excitotoxicity has yielded mostly symptomatic improvements in experimental animals of PD.

Although there are numerous strategies to counteract the death of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD), there are currently no treatments that delay or prevent the disease course, indicating that early protective treatments are needed.

Impaired behavioral suppression by light in metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 6-deficient mice
The metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 6 is localized on the dendrites of ON bipolar cells in mammalian retina, and is responsible for synaptic transmission from photoreceptors to ON bipolar cells. We have previously provided electrophysiological evidence that metabotropic glutmate receptor subtype 6-deficient mice have an impairment in the ON ...

Recently, selective and systemically active antagonists for the metabotropic glutamate 5 receptor (mGlu(5)) were discovered, and the most potent derivative was found to be MPEP (2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine). Given the high expression of mGlu(5) receptors in limbic forebrain regions, it was decided to evaluate the anxiolytic potential of MPEP ...

AbstractMetabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 6 (mGluR6) is restrictedly expressed in the retinal ON bipolar cells and ablation of mouse mGluR6 by gene targeting results in a loss of ON responses to light stimulus and impairs the detection of visual contrasts.

AbstractIncreasing evidence implicates glutamate‐mediated excitotoxicity as a contributory factor in dopaminergic cell death in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Previous studies have suggested that metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) ligands are neuroprotective against excitotoxicity in vitro.

We studied the effects of subchronic administration of various nootropic drugs, such as piracetam, phenotropil, noopept, semax, pantogam, and nooglutil on the neurochemical characteristics of metabotropic glutamate mGluRII receptors in the brains of inbred BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice, which differed in their initial indices of exploratory behavior, anxiety,

MGluR7 is a presynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptor at ribbon synapses of inner hair cells
The FASEB Journal, 2021Glutamate is the most pivotal excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) dimerize and can couple to inhibitory intracellular signal cascades, thereby protecting glutamatergic neurons from ...

Agonists and Antagonists for Group III Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors 6, 7 and 8
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2005Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have been implicated in a variety of neurological and psychiatric disorders. This article describes recent progress in the development of agonists and antagonists for mGluR 6, 7, and 8. All of them are conformationally constrained or substituted amino acids, and they act at N-terminal extracellular glutamate ...
