Amiloride blocks salt taste transduction of the glossopharyngeal nerve in metamorphosed salamanders.
Studies in the last two decades have shown that amiloride-sensitive Na(+) channels play a role in NaCl transduction in rat taste receptors. However, this role is not readily generalized for salt taste transduction in vertebrates, because functional expression of these channels varies across species and also in development in a species. Glossopharyngeal nerve responses to sodium and potassium sa...
متن کاملEffect of Maillard Reacted Peptides on Human Salt Taste and the Amiloride-Insensitive Salt Taste Receptor (TRPV1t)
Maillard reacted peptides (MRPs) were synthesized by conjugating a peptide fraction (1000-5000 Da) purified from soy protein hydrolyzate with galacturonic acid, glucosamine, xylose, fructose, or glucose. The effect of MRPs was investigated on human salt taste and on the chorda tympani (CT) taste nerve responses to NaCl in Sprague-Dawley rats, wild-type, and transient receptor potential vanilloi...
متن کاملTaste responses in the greater superficial petrosal nerve: substantial sodium salt and amiloride sensitivities demonstrated in two rat strains.
A great quantity of research has focused on neural responses of the chorda tympani nerve (CT) to taste stimuli. This report examined salt and sugar sensitivity of the greater superficial petrosal nerve (GSP) and the effect of amiloride on these neural responses. In addition to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats that have CT responses typical of most rat strains, we included Fischer 344 (F344) rats whose ...
متن کاملRecovery of amiloride-sensitive neural coding during regeneration of the gustatory nerve: behavioral-neural correlation of salt taste discrimination.
The chorda tympani (CT) nerve innervating the anterior tongue contains two types of NaCl-responsive fibers: one, the N-type, receives input from receptor cells, the NaCl responses of which are strongly inhibited by amiloride, whereas the other, the E-type, receives input from cells poorly sensitive or insensitive to amiloride. To investigate the formation of this differentially responsive neura...
متن کاملProton currents through amiloride-sensitive Na channels in hamster taste cells. Role in acid transduction
The activity of taste cells maintained in the intact hamster tongue was monitored in response to acid stimulation by recording action currents from taste receptor cells with an extracellular "macro" patch pipette: a glass pipette was pressed over the taste pore of fungiform papillae and perfused with citric acid, hydrochloric acid, or NaCl. Because this technique restricted stimulus application...
