Metabotropic glutamate receptors and TRPC1 channel: Role in synaptic plasticity
Farah Issa, Xavier Yerna, Thibaud Parpaite, Nicolas Tajeddine, Philippe Gailly · FENS Forum 2024
Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) are involved in various forms of synaptic plasticity that underlie declarative memory by inducing long-term depression (mGluR-LTD). mGLUR-LTD results from an endocytosis of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPARs) underlying synaptic depression. The lab has previously shown that mGluR5 specifically activates TRPC1 channel, a Transient Receptor Potential channel that is highly expressed in CA1-3 regions of the hippocampus.To investigate the role of mGluR-TRPC1 in synaptic plasticity, and to decipher its downstre
