Endogenous activation of group-II metabotropic glutamate receptors inhibits the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenocortical axis
Abstract
Systemic injection of the mGlu2/3 receptor antagonist, LY341495 (1 mg/kg, i.p.), increased plasma corticosterone in mice to an extent similar to that induced by the despair test. Treatment with the mGlu2/3 receptor agonist, LY379268 (1 mg/kg, i.p.), or the non-competitive mGlu5 receptor antagonist, MPEP (5 mg/kg, i.p.), failed to induce significant changes in corticosterone levels. Searching for a site of action of LY341495, we examined the expression of mGlu receptor subtypes in the various anatomical regions of the mouse hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Only mGlu5 and -7 receptor mRNAs were detected in the adrenal gland by RT-PCR, whereas mGlu -1, -3, -4, -5, -7 and -8 receptor mRNAs were detected in the anterior pituitary. All transcripts (with the exception of mGlu5 and mGlu6 receptor mRNAs) were detected in the hypothalamus. However, Western blot analysis showed the presence of mGlu2/3 receptor proteins only in the hypothalamus and not in the anterior pituitary. This was consistent with functional data showing that LY341495 (0.1 and 1 microM) failed to affect ACTH secretion from isolated mouse anterior pituitaries. Moving from these observations, we examined whether LY341495 could activate the HPA axis by inhibiting mGlu2/3 receptors at hypothalamic level. We measured the release of corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) in isolated mouse hypothalami incubated in the presence of subtype-selective mGlu receptor agonists or antagonists. Among all the drugs we have tested, only LY341495 was able to increase CRH secretion. With high concentrations of LY341495 (1 microM) this increase was similar to that induced by 50 mM K(+). The action of LY341495 was prevented by the combined application of the mGlu2/3 receptor agonist, LY379268. We conclude that group-II mGlu receptors tonically regulate the HPA axis by controlling CRH secretion at hypothalamic level.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
