DHPG, also known as (RS)-3,5-DHPG, is a selective agonist for group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), specifically targeting mGluR1 and mGluR5. Activation of these receptors by 3,5-DHPG has been shown to influence synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability. 3,5-DHPG, through its action on group I mGluRs, can modulate synaptic activity by promoting spontaneous neurotransmitter release in a patterned manner, which may have implications for understanding synaptic dynamics and developing therapeutic strategies targeting these receptors.
