The primary olfactory projections of channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus have been examined with postmortem tracing by using either 1,1Π-dioctadecyl-3,3,3Π,3Π-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate or 1,1-dilinoleyl-3,3,3Π,3Π-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI).

Metabotropic glutamate receptors
nificantly reduced olfactory receptor responses to L- (mGluRs) were identified in olfactory receptor neuglutamate. S-4CPG and MCCG reduced the glutarons of the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, by mate response to 54% and 56% of control, respecpolymerase chain reaction. DNA sequence analysis tively, which was significantly greater than their effect confirmed the presence of two subtypes, mGluR1 and on a neutral amino acid odorant, methionine. These mGluR3, that were coexpressed with each other and significant reductions of odorant response by the anwith the putative odorant receptors within single oltagonists, taken with the expression of these receptors factory receptor neurons. Immunocytochemical data throughout the dendritic and ciliated portions of some showed that both mGluR subtypes were expressed in olfactory receptor neurons, suggest that these mGluRs the apical dendrites and some cilia of olfactory neumay be involved in olfactory reception and signal rons. Pharmacological analysis showed that antagotransduction. α§ 1998

## Abstract The group I metabotropic glutamate receptors, mGluR1 and mGluR5, exhibit a high degree of sequence homology, and are often found coβexpressed in the same neuronal populations. These receptors couple to a broad array of effector systems, and are implicated in diverse physiological and pa
The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) that are expressed and not expressed on astrocytes in the brain have not been defined. While immunohistochemistry and in situ mRNA hybridization have been used on a limited basis to address this question, they do not readily enable the proportion of astr
Localization of metabotropic glutamate receptor subtypes, mGluR1, mGluR1β£, mGluR2/3, mGluR4a, mGluR5, mGluR7a, mGluR7b, and mGluR8, was examined in some of the target areas of projection fibers from the main and accessory olfactory bulbs (MOB and AOB) by using subtype-specific antibodies.
