(S)-Homo-AMPA, a Specific Agonist at the mGlu6 Subtype of Metabotropic Glutamic Acid Receptors
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 1997Our previous publication (J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 3188-3194) described (RS)-2-amino-4-(3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl)butyric acid (Homo-AMPA) as a highly selective agonist at the mGlu6 subtype of metabotropic excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors.

Previous studies have demonstrated that human astrocytes express mRNA and receptor protein for group I and II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). Whether these receptors can influence the inflammatory and immune response and can modulate the capacity of astrocytes to produce inflammatory cytokines is still unclear.

Experimental Neurology, 2001 By using an animal model of parkinsonism, we examined the expression of GABA(A) receptor (R) and metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) 5 in the basal ganglia after transplantation with dopamine-rich tissue. The adult rats were unilaterally lesioned by the injection of 6-hydroxydopamine to their left medial forebrain bundles.

Imaging of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 1 (mGluR1), localized exclusively in the cerebellar Purkinje cells and related to cerebellar function, has recently become possible using positron emission tomography (PET). We report the initial mGluR1 imaging in a 74-year-old woman with spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6).The patient and 9 age-matched ...

Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) 5 is a G-protein-coupled metabotropic glutamate receptor that plays an important role as a modulator of synaptic plasticity, ion channel activity, and excitotoxicity. 2-Methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine (MPEP) is a highly potent, noncompetitive, selective, and systemically active antagonist of mGlu5 receptors.

Intrathecal (i.t.) administration of the group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) agonist (RS)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine ((RS)-3,5-DHPG) to rats produces an immediate display of spontaneous nociceptive behaviors (SNBs) persisting for up to 10 h after injection (NeuroReport 7 (1996) 2743).

Recent studies highlight that the brain glutamate system is involved in the etiology of depression and glutamatergic-targeting drugs are currently being explored as novel antidepressant medications. Previous studies reveal that the selective metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 antagonist 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine (MPEP) produces antidepressant ...

Growing evidence suggests a role for metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in the behavioral effects of cocaine related to its abuse. The mGluR5 subtype, in particular, has come under scrutiny due to its distribution in brain regions associated with drug addiction.

Increasing evidence indicates that the excessive glutamate release onto substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) dopaminergic neurons may play an important role in the progression of nigral degeneration. We examined the effects of chronic, systemic treatment with 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine (MPEP), a selective metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 ...

AbstractThe striatal glutamatergic hyperactivity is considered critical in the development of levodopa‐induced dyskinesias (LID) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Pharmacological antagonism of the metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), in particular, the subtype mGluR5, can inhibit the expression of dyskinesia in both rodent and nonhuman primate models ...
