Rapid taste responses in the gustatory cortex during licking.
Rapid tastant detection is necessary to prevent the ingestion of potentially poisonous compounds. Behavioral studies have shown that rats can identify tastants in approximately 200 ms, although the electrophysiological correlates for fast tastant detection have not been identified. For this reason, we investigated whether neurons in the primary gustatory cortex (GC), a cortical area necessary f...
متن کاملTemporal and qualitative dynamics of conditioned taste aversion processing: combined generalization testing and licking microstructure analysis.
The pattern of licking microstructure during various phases of a conditioned taste aversion (CTA) was evaluated. In Experiment 1, rats ingested lithium chloride (LiCl) for 3 trials and were then offered sodium chloride (NaCl) or sucrose on 3 trials. A CTA to LiCl developed and generalized to NaCl but not to sucrose. CTA intake suppression was characterized by reductions in burst size, average i...
متن کاملEffect of hepatic glucose infusion on glucose intake and licking microstructure in deprived and nondeprived rats.
The effects of hepatic-portal glucose or saline infusions on intake and the temporal distribution of licking (lick microstructure) were evaluated in nondeprived and in 20.5-h food-deprived rats. Rats received portal infusions of isotonic glucose or saline (0.1 ml/min) for 2 h before and then throughout a 90-min period of access to a spout that delivered 12.5% glucose. Overall, a significant tre...
متن کاملIntracerebroventricular CART peptide reduces rat ingestive behavior and alters licking microstructure.
Intracerebroventricular administration of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) peptides reduces food intake and increases c-Fos in brain areas involved in the control of feeding. To discern behavioral mechanisms through which CART alters the microstructure of feeding, we injected CART-(55--102) (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2 microg, and saline controls) into the lateral ventricle of male Sprag...
متن کاملEffects of melanin-concentrating hormone on licking microstructure and brief-access taste responses.
The effects of intracerebroventricular application of melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) on licking for sucrose, quinine hydrochloride (QHCl), and water solutions were evaluated in two experiments. In experiment 1, rats received 90-min access to sucrose and water solutions after MCH or vehicle microinjection to the third ventricle (3V). MCH increased intake largely through increases in the rat...
