The role of metabotropic type excitatory amino acid receptors in brain injury was assessed using the selective metabotropic receptor agonist, (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD). Intrastriatal stereotaxic injection of 1S,3R-ACPD (250 nmol) in PND 7 rats produced little brain injury as assessed

Metabotropic glutamate receptors are selectively activated by 1S,3R-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD). [3H]Glutamate binding sites in rat brain membranes were characterized in the presence of (RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), kainate, and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) to block binding to ionotropic glutamate receptors. 1S,3R-ACPD displaced a

A growing number of studies support an important contribution of astrocytes to neurovascular coupling, i.e., the phenomenon by which variations in neuronal activity trigger localized changes in blood flow that serve to match the metabolic demands of neurons. However, since

Using immunocytochemistry and multiunit recording of afferent activity of the whole vestibular nerve, we investigated the role of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) in the afferent neurotransmission in the frog semicircular canals (SCC). Group I (mGluR1alpha) and group II (mGluR2/3) mGluR
