Example sentences for: mglur
How can you use “mglur” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
However, Siah1a had no detectable effect on mGluR2-mediated calcium current inhibition, consistent with reports demonstrating that Siah1a does not bind to group II mGluRs [ 36 ] . Cells expressing mGluR2 alone exhibited 57 ± 5% inhibition of calcium current in response to glutamate (n = 6), while those coexpressing Siah1a were inhibited 61 ± 2% (n = 6; figure 2).
Siah1a has been shown to be a member of the ubiquitin family of proteins involved in protein degradation through the proteasome [ 30 31 33 ] . Therefore, group I mGluR degradation was considered a potential mechanism for the decrease in mGluR-mediated calcium current modulation observed in SCG neurons.
These data also suggest that Siah1a is acting at the level of the receptor, since much of the calcium current modulation through group I mGluRs proceeds through a Gβγ-mediated pathway similar to that used by α 2 adrenergic receptors and mGluR2 [ 38 40 ] .
In cells expressing mGluR5a and GFP-Siah1a-CT, inhibition was reduced to 14 ± 3 (n = 6; p < 0.05; figure 5B).
Glutamate-mediated calcium current inhibition in cells expressing mGluR5a alone was 33 ± 4% (n = 7).
