The metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 1 regulates development and maintenance of lemniscal synaptic connectivity in the somatosensory thalamus.

The metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 1 (mGluR1) is a major subtype of group I mGluRs, which contributes to the development and plasticity of synapses in the brain. In the sensory thalamus, the thalamocortical neuron receives sensory afferents and massive feedback input from corticothalamic (C...
