mGluR1 and mGluR5 are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) constituting the group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluRI). (encyclopedia.pub)
Partial agonist1
Researcher Ronald Duman further dissected these effects, showing that ketamine and its active metabolite norketamine reduce the steady firing rate of GABA interneurons by blocking NMDA receptors, while the partial agonist rapastinel acts on the glutamate neurons directly, and both increase the effects of a type of glutamate receptors known as AMPA. (bipolarnews.org)
NMDA2
Ketamine repairs structure and function of prefrontal cortical neurons via glutamate NMDA receptor blocking action, while psilocybin and other psychedelics act via stimulating 5HT2A receptors. (bipolarnews.org)
Researcher Hailan Hu reported that NMDA glutamate receptors drive the burst firing of lateral habenula (LHb) neurons, which make up the depressogenic or "anti-reward center" of the brain and appear to mediate anhedonic behavior (loss of interest or enjoyment) in animal models of depression. (bipolarnews.org)

MGluR2
This may occur because inhibitory metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR-2) are activated, decreasing the release of glutamate. (bipolarnews.org)
The mGluRI distinction from other mGluR groups (group II, including mGluR2 and mGluR3, and group III, comprising mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, mGluR8) is based on amino-acid homology, agonist binding, and signaling pathways downstream to receptor activation [ 1 ] . (encyclopedia.pub)

Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRI), including mGluR1 and mGluR5 subtypes, modulate essential brain functions by affecting neuronal excitability, intracellular calcium dynamics, protein synthesis, dendritic spine formation, and synaptic transmission and plasticity. (encyclopedia.pub)
Antagonist1
This class of drugs also interacts with hallucinogenic drugs, with eglumetad reducing the effects of 5HT2A agonist hallucinogens, while conversely the mGluR2/3 antagonist LY341495 increased the behavioural effects of these drugs. (wikipedia.org)

Synaptic2
This suggests that the dopamine-facilitated LTD requires synaptic activation of groups I and II mGluRs during tetanus. (jneurosci.org)
The review provides insight into the active role of astrocytes in dopaminergic signaling to both respond to dopamine with increases in calcium and modulate synaptic transmission (Fig. 1 ) and proposes the targeting of astrocytes for novel treatments of disease processes involving the mesolimbic dopamine system.

Adrenergic1
In particular, we found correlations between three adrenergic receptor subtypes and alcohol deliveries which could indicate an involvement of stress in the choice to self-administer. (5dok.org)
Prefrontal3
Tetanic stimuli to layer I-II afferents in rat prefrontal cortex induced long-term depression (LTD) of layer I-II to layer V pyramidal neuron glutamatergic synapses when tetani were coupled to bath application of dopamine. (jneurosci.org)
Immunoblot analyses with anti-active mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP-Ks) revealed that D1 receptors, D2 receptors, group I mGluRs, and group II mGluRs all contribute to MAP-K activation in prefrontal cortex, and that combined activation of dopamine receptors and mGluRs synergistically or additively activate MAP-Ks. (jneurosci.org)
Stimulating medial prefrontal cortex cells that contained dopamine D1 receptors, but not D2 receptors, produced rapid and sustained antidepressant effects. (bipolarnews.org)
MGluR12
Scheme of the principal mGluR1 and mGluR5 signaling pathways, showing that G q/11 -dependent activation of phospholipase C β (PLCβ) mediates phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis with the generation of diacylglycerol (DAG) (that activates protein kinase C, PKC) and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP 3 ) (that fosters Ca 2+ intracellular release from internal stores by acting on IP 3 R receptors on the endoplasmic reticulum). (encyclopedia.pub)
mGluR1/5, through G q/11 -dependent mechanisms, also modulates ion channels, such as transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs), voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels (VGCC), and different types of K + channels (K v or SK), thus affecting neuronal excitability. (encyclopedia.pub)
5HT2A2
This suggests that mGluR2/3 agonists such as eglumetad may have potential uses in the treatment of some forms of psychosis, although eglumetad had only limited effects on the action of the dissociative drug phencyclidine which is generally a better model for schizophrenia than the 5HT2A agonist hallucinogens. (wikipedia.org)
One single case study suggested that blocking 5HT2A receptors with trazodone could achieve a rapid onset of AD effects of psilocybin without the psychedelic effects, a very interesting finding that requires replication. (bipolarnews.org)

Experiments1
In the next series of experiments, coapplication of dopamine and 1 S ,3 R -ACPD, but not application of either drug alone, consistently induced LTD without tetani or even single test stimuli during drug application, suggesting that coactivation of dopamine receptors and the mGluRs is sufficient for LTD induction.

Deletion of the type 2 metabotropic glutamate receptor increases heroin abuse vulnerability in transgenic rats. (nih.gov)
In this study, Xi and colleagues found that genetic deletion of mGluR2, a glutamate receptor subtype, in rats caused an increase in braindopamine responses to heroin and in opioid reward, facilitating the development of opioid use and abuse. (nih.gov)
Positive symptoms are predominantly mediated by the mesolimbic pathways and involve the dopamine and glutamate networks. (psychscenehub.com)
Unfortunately, toxicological problems have led to concerns or even the discontinued development of a number of putative CNS medications that capitalized on our improved understanding of brain function, such as corticotropin-releasing factor 1 receptor antagonists (Steckler and Dautzenberg, 2006), glutamate receptor antagonists (Sveinbjornsdottir et al .

Positive allosteric modulator2
It contains the precursor for a fantastic molecule called ebelin lactone, which just so happens to be a positive allosteric modulator of one of the main receptor targets of microdosing: 5-HT2A! (nootropicsdepot.com)
The ebelin lactone content of Cognance also acts as an M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor positive allosteric modulator. (nootropicsdepot.com)
Muscarinic2
Accordingly, we identified several candidate genes such as those that encode dopamine D 2 and D 3 receptors, mGluR 2 , M 4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, and α 5 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which appear to meet the risk-gene criteria when their expression is decreased. (nih.gov)
The Gi-DREADD, also known as human muscarinic receptor 4 (hM4Di), is a mutated muscarinic acetylcholine receptor that, when activated by its ligand, clozapine- N -oxide (CNO), initiates the inhibitory G-protein (Gi) signaling cascade that inhibits neuronal signaling and/or excitability.

In contrast, prolonged ketanserin exposure (i.e., 2 h) resulted in 5-HT2A receptor internalization through a clathrin- and dynamin-dependent process, as was observed after agonist treatment. (neurotransmitter.net)
Comparison of the time-courses of agonist-induced downregulation of receptor number and mRNA indicate that a decrease in the number of 5-HT2A receptor binding sites in response to serotonin (5-HT) treatment is preceded by a decrease in 5-HT2A receptor mRNA. (neurotransmitter.net)
Taken together, our results implicate PKC{alpha} and/or PKC{gamma} in the regulation of 5-HT2A mRNA receptor and binding sites in response to agonist treatment [in C6 glioma cells]. (neurotransmitter.net)
Involve1
Although short-term (i.e., 10 min) 5-HT and ketanserin exposure resulted in the same degree of desensitization, ketanserin-induced desensitization was not prevented by these agents and did not involve receptor internalization. (neurotransmitter.net)
Expression1
In C6 glioma cells] 5-HT-induced desensitization of the 5-HT2A receptor involved receptor internalization through a clathrin- and dynamin-dependent process because it was prevented by concanavalin A, monodansylcadaverine, and by expression of the dominant negative mutants beta-arrestin (319-418) and dynamin K44A.
