Gustatory and extragustatory functions of mammalian taste receptors
Physiology & Behavior, 2011An ever increasing number of reports about taste receptors in non-gustatory tissues suggest that these molecules must have additional functions apart from taste. Of the extraoral tissues expressing taste receptors, the gastrointestinal tract received particular attention since evidence is mounting that tastants after being ingested might exert ...

Postexcitatory Depression of Gustatory Receptors
Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 1968AbstractIt was observed that when the same sapid solution was applied two or more times to the tongue of the cat, the first exposure depressed following responses although the tongue was continuously rinsed with water between the periods of stimulation.

Gustatory Receptor-Based Taste Sensors
2015A number of studies are dedicated to studying “electronic tongues” to imitate human taste, which can be applied at the food and beverage industries by using sensor arrays in previous decades.

Histamine avoidance through three gustatory receptors in Drosophila melanogaster
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2022Histamine is a fermented food product that exerts adverse health effects on animals when consumed in high amounts. This biogenic amine is fermented by microorganisms from histidine through the activity of histidine decarboxylase. Drosophila melanogaster can discriminate histidine and histamine using GR22e and IR76b in bitter-sensing gustatory receptor ...

Responses of the frog gustatory receptors to various odorants
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1977Abstract 1. The frog glossopharyngeal nerve was found to respond to various “odorants” applied to the tongue. 2. Linear relation held between logCth and logT, where Cth and T stand for the threshold of odorants in the frog glossopharyngeal nerve response and the olfactory threshold in human, respectively. 3.

Wiring taste receptor cells to the central gustatory system
Oral Diseases, 2018Taste receptor cells in the tongue are epithelial in nature and turnover frequently. Taste receptor cell‐associated neurons carrying bitter, sweet, or sour signals never turnover and are hardwired to specific gustatory centers in the brain. How can ever‐changing bitter or sweet receptors find never‐changing neurons that must match the specificity of ...

A gustatory mutant of Drosophila defective in pyranose receptors
Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1981Mutations in an X-linked gene, gust-A, block the responses of Drosophila melanogaster to a group of pyranose sugars. It is shown that the behavioural effects of this mutation are correlated with a loss of electrical responses in taste receptors. The mutation affects the chemoacceptors for pyranose sugars leaving the furanose acceptors intact.

Gustatory receptors required for sensing umbelliferone in Drosophila melanogaster
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2015Studies of taste modality using the animal model Drosophila melanogaster have elucidated a number of uncharacterized mechanisms of sensory responses. Gustatory receptors expressed in taste organs are not only responsible for the acceptance and rejection of different foods, but are also involved in the process of selecting an oviposition site.

High sensitivity of minnow gustatory receptors to amino acids
Physiology & Behavior, 1981Abstract The stimulating effects of amino acids and related compounds on the gustatory receptors were studied in the Japanese minnow, Pseudorasbora parva , by recording electrical responses from the palatine nerve innervating the upper lip and the adjacent palate.
