Core Tip |
Metabotropic glutamate 5 receptors (mGluR5s) belong to Group I mGlu receptors which are coupled to the inositol trisphosphate/diacylglycerol pathway. As well as in the brain, mGluR5s and their ligands have been found in peripheral organs, including those associated with the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. We review published findings about their identification and role in the mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestine and accessory digestive organs such as the tongue, liver and pancreas. We conclude that mGluR5s are still poorly studied in the GI tract and their peripheral non-synaptic signaling, and that their therapeutic potential needs to be further investigated. |
