Abstract

The mechanism underlying the upregulation of NMDA receptor function by group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), including mGluR1 and 5, is not known. Here we show that in cortical neurons, brief selective activation of group I mGluRs with (S)-3,5-dihydroxy-phenylglycine (DHPG) induced a Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent activation of Pyk2/CAKbeta and the Src-family kinases Src and Fyn that was independent of protein kinase C (PKC). Activation of Pyk2 and Src/Fyn kinases led to increased tyrosine phosphorylation of NMDA receptor subunits 2A and B (NR2A/B) and was blocked by a selective mGluR1 antagonist, 7-(hydroxyamino)cyclopropa[b]chromen-1a-carboxylate ethyl ester, but not an mGluR5 antagonist, 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine. Functional linkage between mGluR1 activation and NR2A tyrosine phosphorylation through Pyk2 and Src was also demonstrated after expression of these elements in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Supporting functional consequences, selective activation of mGluR1 by DHPG induced a potentiation of NMDA receptor-mediated currents that was blocked by inhibiting mGluR1 or Src-family kinases. Furthermore, antagonizing calmodulin or mGluR1, but not PKC, reduced the basal tyrosine phosphorylation levels of Pyk2 and Src, suggesting that mGluR1 may control the basal activity of these kinases and thus the tyrosine phosphorylation levels of NMDA receptors.

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.
