Group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR2 and mGluR3) are implicated in schizophrenia. We characterized mGluR2, 3 in the human prefrontal cortex (PFC) and mesencephalon then compared cases with schizophrenia to matched controls. In the human brain, both receptors were expressed in the PFC and, unlike the rodent, in dopaminergic cell groups. In schizophrenia, we found significantly higher levels of mGluR2 mRNA in the PFC white matter. The expression of mGluR2, 3 in dopaminergic cells provides a mechanism for glutamate to modulate dopamine release in the human brain and this species-specific difference is critical to understanding rodent models in schizophrenia.
