Background:
L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt (Monosodium glutamate) is an activator of mGlu1 receptor.
A single systemic injection of L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt (MSG) (3 g/kg) to PND9 mice causes extensive retinal degeneration and reduces the number of Brn-3a+RGCs by >70% with respect to control mice treated with saline; In mice treated with L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt and JNJ16259685, the number of RGC is reduced by only<20%, and the resulting value is not significantly different from values obtained in all other groups of mice, including control mice. L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt administration to wild-type BALB/c littermates reduces RGC number to a lower extent than in C57BL/6J mice, but the reduction is still highly significant[1].
