Glutamate Receptor Signaling in Retina Müller Cells: Plausible Role in Neurodegeneration

Receptors
The retinal network relies on glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter involved in the visual cycle. Glutamate transactions are carried out by an array of distinct receptors and transporters distributed across both pre- and post-synaptic ...

Neurotoxic Agent-Induced Injury in Neurodegenerative Disease Model: Focus on Involvement of Glutamate Receptors

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Glutamate receptors play a crucial role in the central nervous system and are implicated in different brain disorders. They play a significant role in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease,

The Calcium‐Binding Protein S100A10 (p11) Is Required for Normal Motor Performance by Regulating Vesicle Dynamics at Excitatory Synapses

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Identifying interactors in sensorimotor processing and neurotransmission remains a current challenge for understanding neural information processing and brain function. Methods To evaluate the role of p11 in sensorimotor processing and excitatory synaptic neurotransmission, neuron‐specific lentivirus‐directed p11 silencing, small ...

Troriluzole attenuates opioid intake, reinforcing efficacy, seeking behaviours, physical dependence and antinociceptive tolerance in rats

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 3, Page 505-519, February 2026.
Background and Purpose Riluzole, approved for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), has a glutamate‐modulating profile favourable for mitigating opioid addiction. It reduces neuronal glutamate release and enhances glutamate reuptake, offering advantages over agents that only increase glutamate reuptake.

Glutamate Delta 1 Receptor in Synapses, Circuits, and Disease

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 3, February 2026.
This review discusses our current understanding of the structure–function, expression and roles in neural circuits of the less studied glutamate delta 1 (GluD1) receptor. Converging data suggests many unique features of GluD1 including expression at both excitatory and inhibitory synapses and binding to D‐serine and GABA.

Interplay between metabotropic glutamate type 4 and adenosine type 1 receptors modulate synaptic transmission in the cerebellar cortex

Frontiers in Pharmacology
The synapses between parallel fibers and Purkinje cells play a pivotal role in cerebellar function. They are intricately governed by a variety of presynaptic receptors, notably by type 4 metabotropic glutamate (mGlu4) receptors and type 1 adenosine (A1 ...

Common Mechanisms Underlying Opioid Tolerance and Dependence and Neuropathic Pain: Role of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors

Pain Research and Management, 2000
It has been suggested that opioid tolerance and dependence share common mechanisms with neuropathic pain. This short review deals with the role of glutamate and glutamate receptors in opioid tolerance and dependence, and neuropathic pain.

A PI3K-mediated negative feedback regulates Drosophila motor neuron excitability [PDF]

, 2008
Negative feedback can act as a homeostatic mechanism to maintain neuronal activity at a particular specified value. At the Drosophila neuromuscular junction, a mutation in the type II metabotropic glutamate receptor gene (mGluRA) increased motor neuron ...

Endocannabinoid signaling modulates neurons of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) via astrocytes. [PDF]

, 2014
The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) is known as the cholinergic part of the reticular activating system (RAS) and it plays an important role in transitions of slow-wave sleep to REM sleep and wakefulness.
