Distinct Regional Distributions of nk1 and nk3 Neurokinin Receptor Immunoreactivity in Rat Brainstem Gustatory Centers

, 2004
Tachykinins and their receptors are present in gustatory centers, but little is known about tachykinin function in gustation. In this study, immunohistochemical localization of substance P and two centrally prevalent neurokinin receptors, NK1 and NK3 ...

Dietary Salt Levels Affect Salt Preference and Learning in Larval Drosophila [PDF]

, 2011
Drosophila larvae change from exhibiting attraction to aversion as the concentration of salt in a substrate is increased. However, some aversive concentrations appear to act as positive reinforcers, increasing attraction to an odour with which they have ...

Reflex seizures and epilepsy surgery: A network approach case‐based exploration

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Context Reflex seizures (RS) are defined by their consistent provocation by specific stimuli, encompassing a broad range from elementary sensory inputs to complex cognitive tasks. While RS are often encountered in clinical practice, their surgical management remains sparsely reported and poorly systematized.

Gustatory Detection of Tetrodotoxin and Saxitoxin, and Its Competitive Inhibition by Quinine and Strychnine in Freshwater Fishes

Marine Drugs, 2011
Fish detect extremely low levels of marine toxins tetrodotoxin (TTX) and saxitoxin (STX) via the specialized gustatory receptor(s). Physiological and pharmacological studies show that receptor(s) for TTX and STX are distinct from those which detect ...

Direct cortical stimulation–evoked symptoms in the human temporal pole: A systematic review

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The temporal pole represents a key node within temporolimbic networks and may contribute to seizure generation in temporal lobe epilepsy. Direct cortical stimulation (DCS), performed during intracranial presurgical evaluation, is a valuable method for delineating the seizure onset zone by reproducing electro‐clinical features of a patient's ...

Taste cells depend on axon proximity to generate presynaptic sites.

PLoS ONE
The turnover and re-establishment of peripheral taste synapses is vital to maintain connectivity between primary taste receptor cells and the gustatory neurons which relay taste information from the tongue to the brain.

A gustatory receptor involved in host plant recognition for oviposition of a swallowtail butterfly

, 2011
Swallowtail butterflies belonging to the family of Papilionidae selectively utilize a limited number of plants from a single or a few families. Female butterflies lay eggs on their host only when they detect specific chemicals through their foreleg ...
