Group I of the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors includes GRM1 and GRM5, receptors that have been shown to activate phospholipase C.
Alternative splice variants of GRM5 have been described, but their full-length nature has not been determined.
Inflammation results in the activation of mGluR1 and mGluR5 in dorsal horn neurons of the spinal cord, leading to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation, which is required for nociceptive plasticity and enhanced pain.
GRM5 is involved in inflammatory mechanical hyperalgesia and potentially in schizophrenia.
Summary of expresson: GRM5 has been reported to be expressed in various regions of the brain as well as in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia.
