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 ...
Development of chorda tympani taste responses in rat
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1981-05-01)
To learn whether neurophysiological taste responses change during structural development of the gustatory system, we recorded from the chorda tympani nerve in rats aged 7 to 92 days after birth. Chemical stimuli applied ...
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. ...
Organ cultures of embryonic rat tongue support tongue and gustatory papilla morphogenesis in vitro without intact sensory ganglia
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-01-20)
Taste buds on the mammalian tongue are confined to the epithelium of three types of gustatory papillae: the fungiform, circumvallate, and foliate. The gustatory papillae are composed of an epithelium that covers a broad ...
Longitudinal patterns of care for patients with posttraumatic stress disorder
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-10)
This study assessed patterns of mental health service use over time by patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) — as compared with patients with schizophrenia and major depression — with emphasis on the persistence ...
Developmental neurobiology of salt taste sensation
(Elsevier, 1990-05)
A principal process in the homeostatic control of sodium levels is salt intake, and the sense of taste has a primary role in regulating ingestion. Because ingestion of sodium chloride (NaCl) is essential for life, the taste ...
Alterations in size, number, and morphology of gustatory papillae and taste buds in BDNF null mutant mice demonstrate neural dependence of developing taste organs
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-06-21)
Sensory ganglia that innervate taste buds and gustatory papillae (geniculate and petrosal) are reduced in volume by about 40% in mice with a targeted deletion of the gene for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). In ...
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) ...
