PLoS ONE, 2019 In insects, the gustatory system has a critical function not only in selecting food and feeding behaviours but also in growth and metabolism. Gustatory receptors play an irreplaceable role in insect gustatory signalling.

Neurophysiological and behavioral responses of gypsy moth larvae to insect repellents: DEET, IR3535, and picaridin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The interactions between insect repellents and the olfactory system have been widely studied, however relatively little is known about the effects of repellents on the gustatory system of insects. In this study, we show that the gustatory receptor neuron

Stimulation of the gerbil's gustatory receptors by disaccharides [PDF]
Brain Research, 1976 The gustatory responses from the chorda tympani nerve of the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, were treated with 13 disaccharides. Sucrose was the most stimulatory sugar. The ability of fructosyl glycosides to stimulate may depend upon the linkage between fructose and the glycoside. Disaccharides possessing 1 leads to 3, 1 leads to 4, or 1 leads

NMDA receptors in the basolateral amygdala and gustatory neophobia [PDF]
Brain Research, 2008 The attenuation of gustatory neophobia occurs during repeated exposures to an initially novel taste solution that is increasingly perceived as safe and familiar. The present study examined whether NMDA receptors in the basolateral region of the amygdala (BLA) are involved in this important behavioral phenomenon.

Stimulation of the gerbil's gustatory receptors by saccharin [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1982 The gustatory responses from the chorda tympani nerve of the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, were tested with saccharin and some closely related compounds. Only two compounds, saccharin and 6- chlorosaccharin, stimulated the gerbil's taste receptors to any degree and in the same order in which they are sweet to man, saccharin greater than 5 ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Honeybees (Apis mellifera) need their fine sense of taste to evaluate nectar and pollen sources. Gustatory receptors (Grs) translate taste signals into electrical responses.

Gustatory Effects of Capsaicin that are Independent of TRPV1 Receptors [PDF]
Chemical Senses, 2005 In order to choose which foods are palatable and safe to ingest, it is important to integrate information from different modalities, not only chemosensory (taste and olfaction), but also somatosensory (texture, irritation, nociception) (Scott and Verhagen, 2000).

BMC Genomics, 2020 Background Crustaceans express several classes of receptor genes in their antennules, which house olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) and non-olfactory chemosensory neurons.

Taste sensing and sugar detection mechanisms in Drosophila larval primary taste center
eLife, 2021 Despite the small number of gustatory sense neurons, Drosophila larvae are able to sense a wide range of chemicals. Although evidence for taste multimodality has been provided in single neurons, an overview of gustatory responses at the periphery is ...

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2022 It has been reported that the supplementation of chicken diet with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) affects the qualities of eggs and meat.
