Two phenylglycine derivates, (S)-4-carboxyphenylglycine and (RS)-alpha-methyl-4-carboxyphenylglycine, competitively antagonised (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylate (ACPD)-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in rat cerebral cortical slices. The same phenylglycine derivatives selectively antagonized ACPD-induced depolarization in neonatal rat spinal motoneurones and rate thalamic neurones relative to depolarization or excitation induced

The possible roles of G-protein coupled metabotropic glutamate receptors in central nervous function are currently the focus of intensive investigation. The complexity of effects produced by agonists at these receptors probably reflects the activity of a range of sub-types. The
