Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors in Psychiatric and Neurological Disorders, Volume 168 in the International Review of Neurobiology series, highlights advances in the field, with this new volume presenting interesting chapters on topics such as mGlu receptors in Parkinson’s disease, Metabotropic glutamate receptors in estradiol-mediated motivated behaviors in females, mGlu regulation of sleep, Implications for sleep disruptions in psychiatric disorders, Mechanisms of mGlu receptor trafficking; alterations by methamphetamine, Group I mGlu and cocaine seeking, The role of mGlu receptors in fear and anxiety, Regulation of Alcohol Consumption, Reward, Dependence, and Perception by Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Signaling, and mGlu5 as a biomarker for psychiatric disorders.
"...comprehensively covers the role of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), a big group of G protein-coupled receptors, in psychiatric and neurological conditions,... intended for a wide range of scientists in the field of neurological and psychiatric disorders, mainly focusing on molecular mechanisms and effects in disease models.... [C]overs recent advances on the role of mGluRs in neurobehavioral disorders, as in stress, fear, and anxiety-like behaviorals, in addiction, and in sex differences in receptor regulation.... [A] great emphasis has been given on the role of mGluRs in Parkinson’s disease, [and] in some neurological conditions, including epilepsy and Alzheimer’s disease.... The book is of great quality and the content is relevant to neuroscience." -- ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Anna P Andreou, PhD (King's College London)
