General description

Millipore′s Ready-to-Assay GPCR frozen cells are designed for simple, rapid calcium assays with no requirement for intensive cell culturing. Millipore has optimized the freezing conditions to provide cells with high viability and functionality post-thaw. The user simply thaws the cells and resuspends them in media, dispenses cell suspension into assay plates and, following over night recovery, assays for calcium response.

Glutamate is a main excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and it plays a role in learning, memory and neurotoxicity. The biological actions of glutamate are mediated by ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors, which are ion channels and GPCRs respectively. Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are members of the class 3 G-protein coupled receptor family, which are characterized by a large extracellular domain.
They are further classified into group I, II, and III mGluRs on the basis of their sequence identity, pharmacology, and signal transduction mechanism. Group I (mGlu1 and mGlu5) couple to the phospholipase C pathway through Gαq, whereas group II (mGlu2 and mGlu3) and group III (mGlu4, mGlu6, mGlu7, and mGlu8) negatively couple to the adenylyl cyclase pathway though Gαi (Conn and Pin, 1997). Agonists of the Group II metabotropic glutamate receptors, mGlu2 and mGlu3, display efficacy in animal models of anxiety and psychosis. A key role for mGlu2 in mediating these effects is indicated by the observation that selective allosteric potentiator of mGlu2 also retains antipsychotic-like activities in mice (Galici et al., 2005). In addition, mGlu2/3 agonists display analgesic activity in animal models (Jones et al., 2005). Millipore′s cloned human mGlu2-expressing cell line is made in the Chem-1 host, which supports high levels of recombinant mGlu2 expression on the cell surface and contains high levels of the promiscuous G protein Gα15 to couple the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. Thus, the cell line is an ideal tool for screening for agonists and antagonists at mGlu2.

Pathways and Biomarkers of Glutamatergic Synapse Flyer

Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter found in the synaptic vesicles of glutamatergic synapses. The post-synaptic neurons in these synapses contain ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamate binds to AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5- methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid) subtype glutamate receptors, leading to sodium influx into the post-synaptic cell and resulting in neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission. The NMDA (N-methyl-d-aspartate) subtype glutamate receptors, on the other hand, regulate synaptic plasticity, and can influence learning and memory. The metabotropic g-protein coupled mGluRs modulate downstream calcium signaling pathways and indirectly influence the synapse’s excitability. The synaptic architecture includes intracellular scaffolding proteins (PSD-95, GRIP), intercellular cell adhesion molecules (NCAMs, N-Cadherins), and a variety of signaling proteins (CaMKII/PKA, PP1/PP2B). Processes critical for synaptic transmission and plasticity are influenced by these molecules and their interactions. When the function of these molecules is disrupted, it leads to synaptic dysfunction and degeneration, and can contribute to dementia as seen in Alzheimer’s disease.
