Glutamate may be an efferent transmitter that elicits inhibition in mouse taste buds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Recent studies suggest that l-glutamate may be an efferent transmitter released from axons innervating taste buds. In this report, we determined the types of ionotropic synaptic glutamate receptors present on taste cells and that underlie this postulated

Insulin-Like Growth Factors Are Expressed in the Taste System, but Do Not Maintain Adult Taste Buds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Growth factors regulate cell growth and differentiation in many tissues. In the taste system, as yet unknown growth factors are produced by neurons to maintain taste buds.

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2022 Zinc is an essential trace element, and its deficiency causes taste dysfunction. Zinc accumulates in zinc transporter (ZnT)3-expressing presynaptic vesicles in hippocampal neurons and acts as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.

Contribution of Underlying Connective Tissue Cells to Taste Buds in Mouse Tongue and Soft Palate. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Taste buds, the sensory organs for taste, have been described as arising solely from the surrounding epithelium, which is in distinction from other sensory receptors that are known to originate from neural precursors, i.e., neural ectoderm that includes ...

A taste of the deep-sea: The roles of gustatory and tactile searching behaviour in the grenadier fish Coryphaenoides armatus [PDF]
, 2007 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.

Psychophysical Taste Assessment: Comparison Between Taste Strips and Cotton Taste Buds
B-ENTBackground: To develop a more practical screening test for gustatory function, without losing the sensitivity of taste strips, and to evaluate the effect of a learning phase in identification of tastants. Methods: A total of 35 participants (25 female

Early development of olfactory and taste organs in Caspian Kutum, Rutilus kutum, Kamensky, 1901 [PDF]
تغذیه آبزیان, 2019 This study was conducted to assess the ontogeny of the olfactory and taste organs in Caspian Kutum, Rutilus kutum, from hatching up to 23 days post hatching (DPH). So that, the larvae were randomly sampled daily from 1 to 23 DPH.

Toxic Effects of Tramadol Abuse and Withdrawal on Histopathological Structure of Tongue in Sprague Dawley Rats [PDF]
Zagazig Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, 2022 Background: Taste disturbance among tramadol abusers has been reported in the last few years. Aim: To assess the toxic effects of tramadol abuse on tongue structure including taste buds and reversibility of these changes on withdrawal.

PLoS Genetics, 2014 In mammals, taste buds develop in different regions of the oral cavity. Small epithelial protrusions form fungiform papillae on the ectoderm-derived dorsum of the tongue and contain one or few taste buds, while taste buds in the soft palate develop ...
