Female‐Specific Risk of TAS2R Variants in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Hospital‐Based Cohort Study From the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) function in the innate immune defense of the sinonasal mucosa; however, the genetic association between the TAS2R gene family and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) remains understudied in Asian populations.

The Role of Cholecystokinin in Peripheral Taste Signaling in Mice

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a gut hormone released from enteroendocrine cells. CCK functions as an anorexigenic factor by acting on CCK receptors expressed on the vagal afferent nerve and hypothalamus with a synergistic interaction between leptin.

Development of Anterior Gustatory Epithelia in the Palate and Tongue Requires Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor [PDF]

, 2002
We characterized the gustatory phenotypes of neonatal mice having null mutations for epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr−/−), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf−/−), or both.

Associations Between Multiple Chemosensory Dysfunction and Cognition

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
Key Points This study supports the association between chemosensory dysfunction and cognition. We introduce methods of assessing trigeminal function with the Medoc TSA‐II thermoprobe. Our results identify an association between subjective trigeminal dysfunction and cognition.

Different shape but the same topographical complexity—The lingual gross anatomy of the Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the distinctly different shapes of their tongues, the tongue gross anatomy of Saimaa ringed seal closely resembled that of Baltic ringed seal. There were no differences in the extrinsic and intrinsic tongue muscles or their associated vascularization and innervation between Saimaa and Baltic ringed seals.

A structural perspective on insect gustatory receptors

Chemical Senses
Abstract Across the animal kingdom, a remarkable diversity of chemoreceptors has evolved, reflecting the ecological and evolutionary pressures that shape species-specific sensory demands. Insects, the most biodiverse class of animals, play crucial roles in ecosystems and have an extensive chemosensory repertoire.

doublesex functions early and late in gustatory sense organ development. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Somatic sexual dimorphisms outside of the nervous system in Drosophila melanogaster are largely controlled by the male- and female-specific Doublesex transcription factors (DSX(M) and DSX(F), respectively).

Input-driven components of spike-frequency adaptation can be unmasked in vivo [PDF]

, 2004
Spike-frequency adaptation affects the response characteristics of many sensory neurons, and different biophysical processes contribute to this phenomenon.

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...
