Developmental changes in taste responses from glossopharyngeal nerve in sheep and comparisons with chorda tympani responses
(Elsevier, 1983-12)
To learn whether there are developmental changes in salt and acid taste responses from the posterior tongue, we recorded from the glossopharyngeal nerve, which innervates taste buds in circumvallate papillae, in sheep ...
Demonstration of sensory innervation of rat tongue with anterogradely transported horseradish peroxidase
(Elsevier, 1986-03-05)
Wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase injected into the petrosal ganglion in rats was transported to the posterior tongue in the glossopharyngeal nerve. Labelled fibers innervated the ipsilateral foliate papilla ...
4-Aminopyridine reduces chorda tympani nerve taste responses to potassium and alkali salts in rat
(Elsevier, 1993-05-28)
To study the potential role of potassium channels in the taste response to potassium salts, we applied 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) to the anterior rat tongue and recorded chorda tympani nerve taste responses to chemical stimuli. ...
Modulation of menopausal hot flashes by ambient temperature
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
1. 1.|The effect of ambient temperature on frequency, intensity and duration of hot flashes was studied in six women with hot flashes who were exposed to cool (Ta = 19[deg]C) and warm (Ta = 31[deg]C) Tas for 8-h periods. ...
Relationships between glucose, insulin and glucagon during fasting in late gestation in the rat
(Elsevier, 1974-07-15)
Plasma glucose, insulin and glucagon were measured in pregnant and age-matched virgin rats in the fed state and after fasting 6, 48 or 120 hours during day 16-21 of gestation. The fed state in pregnancy was characterized ...
Transganglionic transport of HRP from the circumvallate papilla of the rat
(Elsevier, 1985-12-30)
To learn whether horseradish peroxidase (HRP) injections in gustatory papillae on the tongue can be used to study central topographical projections of taste buds and papillae, injections were made into the circumvallate ...
Cholecystokinin effects on feeding, glucose, and pancreatic hormones in rhesus monkeys
(Elsevier, 1983-04)
The effects of cholecystokinin on feeding, and on plasma glucose and pancreatic hormone responses to a mixed-meal were determined in lean rhesus monkeys. Following an overnight fast the octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK-8) ...
Pulsatile LH secretion in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS): Evidence for normal neuroregulation of the menstrual cycle
(Elsevier, 1992)
The premenstrual syndrome (PMS) has been proposed to result from excessive exposure to and/or withdrawal of brain opioid activity during the luteal phase. Because hypothalamic opioids are believed to modulate GnRH secretion, ...
Age does not affect numbers of taste buds and papillae in adult rhesus monkeys
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1985-07)
Taste buds and papillae in tongues of rhesus monkeys were examined and counted to determine if there are age-related differences in general morphology or numbers of receptor organs. Tongues from 15 monkeys in five groups ...
Developmental changes in neurophysiological taste response from the medulla in sheep
(Elsevier, 1980-06-02)
To determine whether functional characteristics of the taste system change during development, electrophysiological taste responses were recorded from neurons in the solitary complex (nucleus and tractus solitarius) in the ...
