Introduction Related Products Customer Reviews Customized Production Drug Discovery

Introduction of GRM2

Protein Name Glutamate metabotropic receptor 2
Gene Name GRM2
Uniprot Q14416 (Human); Q14BI2 (Mouse)
Synonym GLUR2; mGlu2; GPRC1B; MGLUR2; glutamate receptor homolog; glutamate receptor, metabotropic 2
Background GRM2 (mGluR2) is one of the group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), which are coupled to Gi/o. mGluRs belong to the family C of the G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and act to modulate neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission in many brain regions. Like other mGluRs, GRM2 is composed of two main domains, including a large extracellular domain and a 7 transmembrane region. The large extracellular domain is termed the Venus Flytrap domain, which contains the glutamate-binding site. In terms of signaling pathways, GRM2 is involved in signaling pathways including inhibition of adenylyl cyclase, activation of K+ channels, and inhibition of Ca2+ channels.

We provide tailored solutions to meet your specific requirements. Please inquire us for more services.

Allelic Correction for Neurological Disorders

Creative Biolabs offers allelic correction services. Precision genome editing offers a transformative approach to rectify GRM2 mutations implicated in synaptic dysfunction. For instance, studies demonstrate that GRM2 knockdown in hippocampal neurons disrupts dendritic arborization, highlighting its role in neuronal maturation. Gene editing systems can restore wild-type GRM2 expression in models of epilepsy or Alzheimer's disease, where GRM2 dysregulation exacerbates neurodegeneration. Creative Biolabs' optimized RNA design and delivery platforms ensure allele-specific targeting, minimizing off-site effects.

AAV-Mediated GRM2 Overexpression for Synaptic Rescue

Creative Biolabs offers AAV-mediated GRM2 overexpression services. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors engineered with cell-specific promoters enable spatially controlled GRM2 overexpression in vulnerable neuronal populations. Research using RNA-scope and qRT-PCR reveals GRM2 expression gradients between mature and newborn hippocampal neurons. AAV9-based delivery of GRM2 cDNA into the dentate gyrus could reverse synaptic deficits in Alzheimer's models, leveraging Creative Biolabs' proprietary capsid engineering for enhanced blood-brain barrier penetration.

RNA Interference for Attenuating GRM2 Hyperactivity

Creative Biolabs offers RNA interference services. In conditions like epilepsy, siRNA or shRNA delivered via lipid nanoparticles can suppress pathologically elevated GRM2 activity. This approach mimics experimental knockdown models, where reduced GRM2 impairs dendritic complexity. Creative Biolabs' bioengineered siRNA libraries and in vivo validation pipelines streamline the identification of candidates with optimal silencing efficacy and minimal immunogenicity.

GRM2 Cell Therapy Discovery

Creative Biolabs offers comprehensive and innovative services to drive the development of GRM2 cell therapy. Please inquire with us for more services.

GRM2-Expressing iPSC-Derived Neurons for Transplantation

Creative Biolabs offers GRM2-expressing iPSC-derived neurons development services. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) differentiated into GRM2-high hippocampal neurons can replace degenerated cells in Alzheimer's disease. Transcriptomic profiling confirms that GRM2 expression peaks during neuronal maturation. Creative Biolabs' differentiation protocols and quality control assays ensure reproducibility in generating functionally integrated grafts.

GRM2-Specific CAR-T Cells for Autoimmune Encephalopathy

Creative Biolabs offers GRM2-specific CAR-T cells development services. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting GRM2-positive autoreactive immune cells may mitigate neuroinflammation. While preliminary, this strategy aligns with advancements in CAR-T engineering for CNS disorders. Creative Biolabs' custom CAR construct design and cytokine release profiling mitigate risks of cytokine storm or off-target neurotoxicity.

Ex Vivo Gene-Modified Astrocyte Implants

Creative Biolabs offers ex vivo gene-modified astrocyte implant development services. Astrocytes transduced with GRM2 via lentiviral vectors can enhance synaptic support in epilepsy models. These cells, validated via immunofluorescence and RNA-scope, secrete neuroprotective factors while modulating glutamate homeostasis. Creative Biolabs' lentiviral packaging services, including tiered biosafety testing, accelerate translational readiness.

From allelic correction to AAV-driven synaptic rescue, Creative Biolabs' end-to-end solutions integrate cutting-edge molecular tools, preclinical validation, and scalable manufacturing. Contact us to explore how our gene editing, viral vector, and cell therapy platforms can de-risk your GRM2 program and expedite IND-enabling studies.
