Metabotropic glutamate receptor 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GRM3 gene.[1][2]

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.[2]

Ligands

Though truly mGluR3 selective agents still await their discovery, mixed mGluR2/3 (group-II) ligands with selectivity over other mGluR-subtypes are known (2008). Low oral bioavailability is observed in some of them, but it can be met by applying a prodrug strategy.[3]

Agonists

  • with a bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane skeleton
    • MGS-0028[4]
    • LY404040[5]
    • LY379268[6]
    • LY354740[7]; its (+)-C4α-methyl analog is a GluR2 agonist / GluR3 antagonist[8]
  • (R)-2-amino-4-(4-hydroxy[1,2,5]thiadiazol-3-yl)butyric acid[9]

Antagonists

  • CECXG - 38x selectivity for mGlu3 over mGlu2
  • LY-341,495 and its 1-fluoro analog[10]: potent orthosteric antagonists
  • MGS-0039[11], HYDIA[12] (both with bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane skeleton)

Allosteric modulators

  • MNI-137[13]: inhibitior
  • compound 7p[14]: non-competitive antagonist (presumably allosteric inhibitor)

Interactions

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 3 has been shown to interact with GRIP1,[15] PICK1[15] and PPM1A.[16]
