Taste bud formation depends on taste nerves
eLife, 2019 It has been known for more than a century that, in adult vertebrates, the maintenance of taste buds depends on their afferent nerves. However, the initial formation of taste buds is proposed to be nerve-independent in amphibians, and evidence to the ...

Labeling and analysis of chicken taste buds using molecular markers in oral epithelial sheets
Scientific Reports, 2016 In chickens, the sensory organs for taste are the taste buds in the oral cavity, of which there are ~240–360 in total number as estimated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). There is not an easy way to visualize all taste buds in chickens.

Rapid structural remodeling of peripheral taste neurons is independent of taste cell turnover.
PLoS Biology, 2023 Taste bud cells are constantly replaced in taste buds as old cells die and new cells migrate into the bud. The perception of taste relies on new taste bud cells integrating with existing neural circuitry, yet how these new cells connect with a taste ...

Genetic sensitivity to the bitter taste of 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) and its association with Physiological mechanisms controlling Body Mass Index (BMI) [PDF]
Taste sensitivity to the bitter compound 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is considered a marker for individual differences in taste perception that may influence food preferences and eating behavior, and thereby energy metabolism.

Transcriptome dataset for RNA-seq analysis of axolotl embryonic oropharyngeal endoderm explants
Data in Brief, 2020 Animal nutrition and toxin deterrence rely on the ability to taste, which occurs through columnar taste cells clustered within taste buds. Taste buds in mammals are located within specialized tissues, called papillae.

A taste of the deep-sea: The roles of gustatory and tactile searching behaviour in the grenadier fish Coryphaenoides armatus [PDF]
The deep-sea grenadier fishes (Coryphaenoides spp.) are among the dominant predators and scavengers in the ocean basins that cover much of Earth's surface. Baited camera experiments were used to study the behaviour of these fishes.

The Role of 5-HT3 Receptors in Signaling from Taste Buds to Nerves
Journal of Neuroscience, 2015 Activation of taste buds triggers the release of several neurotransmitters, including ATP and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT). Type III taste cells release 5-HT directly in response to acidic (sour) stimuli and indirectly in response to bitter and ...

Neural circuits for taste sensation
Molecules and Cells: The sense of taste arises from the detection of chemicals in food by taste buds, the peripheral cellular detectors for taste. Although numerous studies have extensively investigated taste buds, research on neural circuits from primary taste neurons ...
