positive-negative: subcellular expression differences Explanation: Protein has been detected in dendrites, but not soma.
All of the evidence provided on Hippocampome.org are quotes from scientific texts.
However, because quoted passages may be difficult to understand in isolation, contextual information and expanded abbreviations set in square brackets have been added for clarity.

"The immunoreactivity of mGluR5 and also of its
splice variant mGluR5a was observed by us and other
authors in the neuropil, mainly on dendrites of principal
hippocampal neurons (Lujan et al., 1996; Shigemoto et
al., 1997)."
