Taste Transductions in Taste Receptor Cells: Basic Tastes and Moreover

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014
In the oral cavity, taste receptor cells dedicate to detecting chemical compounds in foodstuffs and transmitting their signals to gustatory nerve fibers. Heretofore, five taste qualities (sweet, umami, bitter, salty and sour) are generally accepted as basic tastes.

Sodium taste

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1997
The regulation of sodium metabolism is achieved by the adaptive sodium-saving capacities in epithelia and by hormones acting within the brain to modulate salt appetite. Taste, especially in rodents, has a sodium-specific component that provides a guiding function for salt intake.

Taste reception

Physiological Reviews, 1996
Recent research on cellular mechanisms of peripheral taste has defined transduction pathways involving membrane receptors, G proteins, second messengers, and ion channels. Receptors for organic tastants received much attention, because they provide the specificity of a response. Their future cloning will constitute a major advance.

Conditioned taste aversions: Generalization to taste mixtures

Physiology & Behavior, 1984
Rats were trained to take their daily water ration within a 30-min session, during which the number of licks per 10-sec presentation of a drinking tube could be recorded. During one of these sessions, one of three stimuli (sucrose, NaCl or HCl) was presented, followed by the administration of cyclophosphamide to produce a conditioned taste aversion ...

Thalamic taste nuclei lesions and taste aversion

Physiology & Behavior, 1978
Abstract Rats with thalamic taste nuclei lesions were adapted to a 23 hr 50 min deprivation schedule and then presented with 0.125 percent saccharin followed by an injection of LiCl or saline. When retested with saccharin, animals with lesions showed a marked attenuation in taste aversion as compared to controls.

Taste the Strawberries

The American Journal of Psychoanalysis, 2014
The author integrates Zen Buddhist and psychoanalytic principles to introduce the notion of "spontaneously arising intuitive models." On the basis of the Zen teaching stories and patient dreams, this paper explores the meanings and psychic functions such intuitive models serve for patients. The notion of "the gap" constitutes a central organizing theme,

Taste receptor proteins

Life Sciences, 1974
Abstract The chemistry of taste has eluded widespread investigation until only recently. Of the four basic taste qualities — sweet, salty, sour and bitter, only sweet and to some lesser extent — bitter — have had inroads made on the molecular level. Carbon-14 labeled sugars are preferently bound to taste bud proteins versus other non-sensory proteins.

Tastes and Complex Tastes

Cultural Sociology
Taste is central to the sociology of culture and a frequently invoked explanans in the discipline at large. Yet, it remains a semantically ambiguous polyseme that has been understood and operationalized in often divergent ways by sociologists. In this essay, we survey contemporary empirical research on cultural tastes and use retroductive reasoning ...
