“…This raises the interest on how expression and function of mGlu5 receptors change during CNS development ( Minakami et al, 1995 ; Casabona et al, 1997 ), in association with learning and memory processes ( Riedel et al, 2000 ), in response to stress ( Zuena et al, 2008 ; Yim et al, 2012 ), and under pathological conditions. Abnormalities in the expression or function of mGlu5 receptors have been associated with schizophrenia ( Ohnuma et al, 1998 ; Gupta et al, 2005 ; Matosin et al, 2013 , 2015 ; Fatemi and Folsom, 2015 ; Lum et al, 2017 ; Zurawek et al, 2017 ), focal cortical dysplasia ( DuBois et al, 2016 ), absence epilepsy ( D’Amore et al, 2015 ), Down’s syndrome ( Iyer et al, 2014 ), neuropathic pain ( Lin et al, 2015 ), Fragile-X syndrome, and other types of monogenic autism ( Huber et al, 2002 ; Bear et al, 2004 ; Giuffrida et al, 2005 ; Ronesi et al, 2012 ; Pignatelli et al, 2014 ).…”
