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.

Modulating Taste Perception in Newly Weaned Piglets: The Role of Palatability Additives in Enhancing Feed Intake and Performance

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Palatability enhancers modulate taste and smell, increasing feed acceptance, reducing weaning stress, and improving piglet performance. ABSTRACT The continuous growth of global agribusiness stimulates the search for alternatives that can enhance the performance and quality of life of production animals.

Physiological activation of human and mouse bitter taste receptors by bile acids

Communications Biology, 2023
Beside the oral cavity, bitter taste receptors are expressed in several non-gustatory tissues. Whether extra-oral bitter taste receptors function as sensors for endogenous agonists is unknown.

MIP receptor signaling promotes short-term gustatory plasticity.

, 2019
(A) Overview of the gustatory plasticity assay: Short-term conditioning with NaCl in the absence of food induces aversive learning, known as gustatory plasticity [11,12]. Synchronized young adult C.

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 ...

Myoinhibitory peptide signaling modulates aversive gustatory learning in Caenorhabditis elegans.

PLoS Genetics, 2019
Aversive learning and memories are crucial for animals to avoid previously encountered stressful stimuli and thereby increase their chance of survival. Neuropeptides are essential signaling molecules in the brain and are emerging as important modulators ...

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 ...

Gustatory innervation and bax -dependent Caspase-2: Participants in the life and death pathways of mouse taste receptor cells [PDF]

, 2000
In the adult mouse tongue, an average of 11% of the gustatory receptor cells are replaced each day. In investigating homeostatic cell death mechanisms in gustatory renewing epithelium, we observed that taste receptor cells were selectively immunopositive

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...
