Pharmacology and functions of metabotropic glutamate receptors.
  • P. Conn, J. Pin
  • Biology, Medicine
  • Annual review of pharmacology and toxicology
  • 1997
In the mid to late 1980s, studies were published that provided the first evidence for the existence of glutamate receptors that are not ligand-gated cation channels but are coupled to effector… Expand
Metabotropic glutamate receptors: physiology, pharmacology, and disease.
  • C. Niswender, P. Conn
  • Biology, Medicine
  • Annual review of pharmacology and toxicology
  • 6 January 2010
The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are family C G-protein-coupled receptors that participate in the modulation of synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability throughout the central… Expand
Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors 1 and 5 Differentially Regulate CA1 Pyramidal Cell Function
The activation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) produces a variety of actions that lead to alterations in excitability and synaptic transmission in the CA1 region of the… Expand
Allosteric modulators of GPCRs: a novel approach for the treatment of CNS disorders
Despite G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) being among the most fruitful targets for marketed drugs, intense discovery efforts for several GPCR subtypes have failed to deliver selective drug… Expand
Metabotropic glutamate receptors: From the workbench to the bedside
Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors were discovered in the mid 1980s and originally described as glutamate receptors coupled to polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis. Almost 6500 articles have been… Expand
Structure of a Class C GPCR Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 Bound to an Allosteric Modulator
Completing the Set G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) are membrane proteins that transduce extracellular signals to activate diverse signaling pathways. Significant insight into GPCR function has… Expand
A Novel Selective Positive Allosteric Modulator of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Subtype 5 Has in Vivo Activity and Antipsychotic-Like Effects in Rat Behavioral Models
We found that 3-cyano-N-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide (CDPPB) is a potent and selective positive allosteric modulator of the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5). In Chinese… Expand
Allosteric modulation of group III metabotropic glutamate receptor 4: A potential approach to Parkinson's disease treatment
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating movement disorder that afflicts >1 million people in North America. Current treatments focused on dopamine-replacement strategies ultimately fail in most… Expand
Group III Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor-Mediated Modulation of the Striatopallidal Synapse
The globus pallidus (GP) is a key GABAergic nucleus in the basal ganglia (BG). The predominant input to the GP is an inhibitory striatal projection that forms the first synapse in the indirect… Expand
Activation of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 5 Has Direct Excitatory Effects and Potentiates NMDA Receptor Currents in Neurons of the Subthalamic Nucleus
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a key nucleus in the basal ganglia motor circuit that provides the major glutamatergic excitatory input to the basal ganglia output nuclei. The STN plays an important… Expand
