All-Electrical Ca2+-Independent Signal Transduction Mediates Attractive Sodium Taste in Taste Buds.
Neuron, 2020 Sodium taste regulates salt intake. The amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is the Na+ sensor in taste cells mediating attraction to sodium salts.

METTL3-mediated m6A RNA methylation regulates dorsal lingual epithelium homeostasis
International Journal of Oral Science, 2022 The dorsal lingual epithelium, which is composed of taste buds and keratinocytes differentiated from K14+ basal cells, discriminates taste compounds and maintains the epithelial barrier.

β-catenin is required for taste bud cell renewal and behavioral taste perception in adult mice. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2017 Taste stimuli are transduced by taste buds and transmitted to the brain via afferent gustatory fibers. Renewal of taste receptor cells from actively dividing progenitors is finely tuned to maintain taste sensitivity throughout life.

Fingerprinting taste buds: intermediate filaments and their implication for taste bud formation [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2000 Intermediate filaments in taste organs of terrestrial (human and chick) as well as aquatic (Xenopus laevis) species were detected using immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy. During development, the potential importance of the interface between the taste bud primordium and non–gustatory, adjacent tissues is evidenced by the distinct ...

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

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.

Taste isn't just for taste buds anymore [PDF]
F1000 Biology Reports, 2011 Taste is a discriminative sense involving specialized receptor cells of the oral cavity (taste buds) and at least two distinct families of G protein-coupled receptor molecules that detect nutritionally important substances or potential toxins. Yet the receptor mechanisms that drive taste also are utilized by numerous systems throughout the body.

Development of ectodermal and endodermal taste buds. [PDF]
Dev BiolThe sense of taste is mediated primarily by taste buds on the tongue. These multicellular sensory organs are induced, patterned and become innervated during embryogenesis such that a functional taste system is present at birth when animals begin to feed.

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.
