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. ...
A decision-making process for planning patient education
(Elsevier, 1984)
Health professionals tend to resist incorporating education into their patient-care activities despite increasing evidence that educating patients in self-care management can favorably influence health outcomes. More-over, ...
A family-based model to predict fear of recurrence for cancer survivors and their caregivers
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-03)
Although fear of cancer recurrence is a great concern among survivors and their families, few studies have examined predictors of fear of recurrence. The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with fear ...
Comparison of the cellular cytotoxic activities of colostral lymphocytes and maternal peripheral blood lymphocytes
(Elsevier, 1985-05)
Colostral lymphocytes (CL) from mothers 2 to 4 days post-partum and autologous maternal peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were investigated for (1) natural killer (NK) and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxic (ADCC) ...
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, ...
