A Spike of Electrodiffusion Reaches Metabotropic Receptors [PDF]
Flow of current in the synaptic cleft can influence diffusion of charged transmitters, such as glutamate. In this issue of Neuron, Sylantyev et al. (2013) demonstrate how this can modulate synaptic NMDA receptor-mediated responses via a surprising mechanism-perisynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptors.

Operant sensation seeking requires metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5). [PDF]
Pharmacological and genetic studies have suggested that the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) is critically involved in mediating the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse, but not food. The purpose of this study was to use mGluR5 knockout (KO),

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Metabotropic glutamate receptors: Phosphorylation and receptor signaling
AbstractMetabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play important roles in neurotransmission, neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and neurological disorders. Recent studies have revealed a sophisticated interplay between mGluRs and protein kinases: activation of mGluRs regulates the activity of a number of kinases, and direct phosphorylation of ...

Structural Basis of GABAB Receptor Activation during Evolution
This study explores the structural and functional mechanisms of the drosophila GABAB receptor, a key role in neurotransmission. Using cryo‐EM, the research reveals how the receptor's activation differs from its human counterpart, highlighting unique evolutionary features.
