Polyclonal antibodies against the N-terminus of the rat r1 subunit were used to study the distribution of g-aminobutyric acid C (GABA C ) receptors in the cat, goldfish, and chicken retina. Strong punctate immunoreactivity was present in the inner plexiform layer (IPL) of all three species. The punc

## Abstract To verify whether altered glial glutamate uptake contributes to the reduced efficacy of glutamatergic transmission reported in the prefrontal cortex of schizophrenics, we studied the expression of GLT‐1, the transporter responsible for most glutamate transport, in autoptic samples of pr
The mGluR1 metabotropic glutamate receptor is a G-protein-coupled receptor that exists as different C-terminal splice variants. When expressed in mammalian cells, the mGluR1 splice variants exhibit diverse transduction mechanisms and also slightly differ in their apparent agonist affinities. In the
The distribution of metabotropic glutamate receptors 1␣ (mGluR1␣) and mGluR2/3 in the cat retina was studied through the use of preembedding immunocytochemistry for light and electron microscopy. Staining for mGluR1␣ in the outer plexiform layer was seen in numerous punctate structures that were ide
