Mammalian Taste Bud Cells Utilize Extragemmal 5-Hydroxy-L-Tryptophan to Biosynthesize the Neurotransmitter Serotonin

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is an important neurotransmitter that is found in mammalian taste buds and can regulate the output of intragemmal signaling networks onto afferent nerve fibers.

Tripotent Lgr5 stem cells in the posterior tongue generate lingual, taste, and salivary gland lineages

Nature Communications
The circumvallate papillae and foliate papillae of the posterior tongue contain taste buds in close proximity to specialized salivary glands, known as von Ebner glands.

Accelerated turnover of taste bud cells in mice deficient for the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27^Kip1

BMC Neuroscience, 2011
Background Mammalian taste buds contain several specialized cell types that coordinately respond to tastants and communicate with sensory nerves. While it has long been appreciated that these cells undergo continual turnover, little is known concerning ...

Morphology and distribution of taste papillae and oral denticles in the developing oropharyngeal cavity of the bamboo shark, Chiloscyllium punctatum

Biology Open, 2016
Gustation in sharks is not well understood, especially within species that ingest food items using suction. This study examines the morphological and immunohistochemical characterisation of taste papillae and oral denticles in the oropharynx of the brown-

Impact of Fungiform Papillae Count on Taste Perception and Different Methods of Taste Assessment and their Clinical Applications: A comprehensive review

Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal, 2019
Fungiform papillae are raised lingual structures which contain taste buds and thus play an important role in taste perception. These structures vary in number due to their relative sensitivity to a range of systemic and local factors which affect the ...
