DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2021.108799
Abstract: The plethora of functions of glutamate in the brain are mediated by the complementary actions of ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). The ionotropic glutamate receptors carry most of the fast excitatory transmission, while mGluRs… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-14761-8
Abstract: Micro(mi)RNA-based post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms have been broadly implicated in the assembly and modulation of synaptic connections required to shape neural circuits, however, relatively few specific miRNAs have been identified that control synapse formation. Using a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/wnr.0000000000000906
Abstract: The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (PAG) in the midbrain plays a key role in the descending pain modulatory system. &ggr;-Aminobutyric acid type B (GABAB) receptors belong to a metabotropic receptor subfamily and mediate both presynaptic and… read more here.

DOI: 10.2174/1574893615999200707150512
Abstract: Presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins are two important neurotoxins. Due to the important role of presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins in pharmacology and neuroscience, identification of them becomes very important in biology. In this study, the statistical… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnsyn.2022.857675
Abstract: In area CA1 of the hippocampus, long-term depression (LTD) can be induced by activating group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), with the selective agonist DHPG. There is evidence that mGluR-LTD can be expressed by either… read more here.
