Glutamate receptor, metabotropic 2, GluR2, also known as GRM2, is a human gene.[1]

L-glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and activates both ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is involved in most aspects of normal brain function and can be perturbed in many neuropathologic conditions. The metabotropic glutamate receptors are a family of G protein-coupled receptors, that have been divided into 3 groups on the basis of sequence homology, putative signal transduction mechanisms, and pharmacologic properties. Group I includes GRM1 and GRM5 and these receptors have been shown to activate phospholipase C. Group II includes GRM2 and GRM3 while Group III includes GRM4, GRM6, GRM7 and GRM8. Group II and III receptors are linked to the inhibition of the cyclic AMP cascade but differ in their agonist selectivities.[1]

Ligands

Subtype-selective potentiators

Although a number of group-II-selective (GluR2/3) ligands are known, ligands displaying high selectivity, including subtype-selectivity over GluR3, are currently rare (2008). Examples of subtype-selective ligands are the following allosteric potentiators.[2] GluR2 potentiation is a new approach for the treatment of schizophrenia.

  • BINA:[3][4] potent potentiator; modest direct agonist; robust in-vivo activity [→formula]
  • LY487379:[5][6][7] devoid of orthosteric activity; along with related 3-pyridylmethylsulfonamides[8][9] the first subtype-2-selective potentiator published (2003).
