Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS) that is involved in numerous cellular functions, including cell death and survival. Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) are G-protein coupled receptors that have been divided into three groups on the basis of signal transduction pathways and pharmacological profiles. Group I, II and III mGluRs are found on cell types within and peripheral to the CNS, including neurons, microglia, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, T and B lymphocytes, osteoblasts, hepatocytes and endothelial cells, among others. These receptors have a number of effects on cells that can affect outcome after trauma, including reducing neuronal and olidogendroglial cell death, inflammation, and endothelial permeability. Therefore, mGluRs are a promising multipotential therapeutic approach. As the pathology of CNS trauma and neurodegeneration is multi-factorial, including oxidative stress, mitochondrial breakdown, inflammation and so on, therapies that serve to modulate multiple pathophysiological pathways may prove more effective than those directed at a single target. This review examines the multipotential therapeutic utility of mGluR modulation in acute and chronic injury and neurodegeneration.
