Glutamatergic neurotransmission modulates hypoxia-induced hyperventilation but not anapyrexia

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
The interaction between pulmonary ventilation (V E) and body temperature (Tb) is essential for O2 delivery to match metabolic rate under varying states of metabolic demand.

Novel agonists for serotonin 5-HT7 receptors reverse metabotropic glutamate receptor-mediated long-term depression in the hippocampus of wild-type and Fmr1 KO mice, a model of Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
Serotonin 5-HT7 receptors are expressed in the hippocampus and modulate the excitability of hippocampal neurons. We have previously shown that 5-HT7 receptors modulate glutamate-mediated hippocampal synaptic transmission and long-term synaptic plasticity.

Light‐Activated Pharmacological Tools for Exploring the Cholinergic System

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 1251-1274, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Cholinergic transmission plays a critical role in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, affecting processes such as learning, memory, and inflammation. Conventional cholinergic drugs generally suffer from poor selectivity and temporal precision, leading to undesired effects and limited therapeutic efficacy. Photopharmacology aims to

Targeting metabotropic glutamate receptors for novel treatments of schizophrenia

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2017
Support for the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) hypofunction hypothesis of schizophrenia has led to increasing focus on restoring proper glutamatergic signaling as an approach for treatment of this devastating disease.

The mGlu7 receptor provides protective effects against epileptogenesis and epileptic seizures

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2019
Finding new targets to control or reduce seizure activity is essential to improve the management of epileptic patients. We hypothesized that activation of the pre-synaptic and inhibitory metabotropic glutamate receptor type 7 (mGlu7) reduces spontaneous ...

Regional brain mGlu5 receptor occupancy following single oral doses of mavoglurant as measured by [11C]-ABP688 PET imaging in healthy volunteers

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2021
Mavoglurant binds to same allosteric site on metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) as [11C]-ABP688, a radioligand. This open-label, single-center pilot study estimates extent of occupancy of mGluR5 receptors following single oral doses of ...

Liquiritigenin‐Rich Hydroalcoholic Extract of Brazilian Red Propolis Reduces Dyskinesia Induced by 3,4‐ Dihydroxyphenylalanine in Hemiparkinsonian Rats

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 137, Issue 1, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The set‐up and progression of dyskinesia induced by 3,4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine (L‐DOPA) are strongly linked to oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. The aim of this work was to study and characterize the effects of the hydroalcoholic extract of Brazilian red propolis (HERP) on L‐DOPA–induced dyskinesia (LID) in hemiparkinsonian rats injected
