Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are G-protein coupled receptors activated by glutamate.
Based on sequence similarity, transduction mechanisms and agonist potencies, mGluRs are subdivided into three groups: mGluR1/mGluR5, mGluR2/mGluR3, and mGluR4/mGluR6/mGluR7/mGluR8.
mGluRs are widely distributed throughout the nervous system and are expressed by both neurons and glial cells.
mGluRs have been suggested to play a variety of functional roles, among which is involvement in synaptic plasticity underlying learning and memory as well as chronic pain.

Sodium azide interferes with peroxidase reactions and should not be used with peroxidase methodologies.
If sodium azide is present in any steps of the staining procedure, the tissue should thoroughly be rinsed with sodium azide-free buffer before performing the peroxidase reaction
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
