Mechanisms associated with activation of intracellular metabotropic glutamate receptor, mGluR5 [PDF]
, 2016 The group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptor, mGluR5, is found on the cell surface as well as on intracellular membranes where it can mediate both overlapping and unique signaling effects.

Therapeutic potential of mGluR5 targeting in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Decades of research dedicated toward Alzheimer's disease (AD) has culminated in much of the current understanding of the neurodegeneration associated with disease. However, delineating the pathophysiology and finding a possible cure for the disease is still wanting.

Translational Concepts of mGluR5 in Synaptic Diseases of the Brain [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2012 The G-protein coupled receptor family of glutamate receptors, termed metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), are implicated in numerous cellular mechanisms ranging from neural development to the processing of cognitive, sensory, and motor information.

Hippocampal neuronal cells that accumulate α-synuclein fragments are more vulnerable to Aβ oligomer toxicity via mGluR5--implications for dementia with Lewy bodies. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundIn dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) abnormal interactions between α-synuclein (α-syn) and beta amyloid (Aβ) result in selective degeneration of neurons in the neocortex, limbic system and striatum.

mGluR5 Has a Critical Role in Inhibitory Learning [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2009 The mechanisms that contribute to the extinction of previously acquired memories are not well understood. These processes, often referred to as inhibitory learning, are thought to be parallel learning mechanisms that require a reacquisition of new information and suppression of previously acquired experiences in order to adapt to novel situations ...

Analysis of the Gut Microbiota and Inflammatory Factors in mGluR5-Knockout Mice
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2020 IntroductionAccumulating evidence indicates that the glutamatergic system plays an important role in the development of depression. Notably, the antidepressant effect of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) modulation is inconsistent across studies.
