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 کاملAnalysis of slow hyperpolarizing potentials in frog taste cells induced by glossopharyngeal nerve stimulation.
Electrical stimulation of the frog glossopharyngeal (GP) nerve evoked slow hyperpolarizing potentials (HPs) in taste cells. This study aimed to clarify whether slow HPs were postsynaptically induced in taste cells. The slow HPs were recorded intracellularly with a microelectrode. When Ca2+ concentration in the blood plasma was decreased to approximately 0.5 mM, the amplitude of slow HPs reduced...
متن کاملDevelopmental changes in taste responses from glossopharyngeal nerve in sheep and comparisons with chorda tympani responses.
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 fetuses, lambs and adults. Multifiber responses to NH4Cl, KCl, NaCl, LiCl, citric and hydrochloric acids were expressed as ratios, relative to responses for two standard chemicals...
متن کاملGlossopharyngeal nerve transection does not alter taste reactivity to sucrose conditioned to be aversive.
Glossopharyngeal nerve (GL) transection in rats is known to markedly reduce gaping, a stereotypical aversive oromotor behavior, in response to intraorally delivered quinine. In this experiment we tested whether GL transection would reduce gaping in response to an otherwise palatable stimulus (sucrose) but conditioned to be aversive. Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with intraoral cannulae. Fi...
متن کاملSlow potentials in taste cells induced by frog glossopharyngeal nerve stimulation.
Intracellular recordings were made from the taste cells of atropinized bullfrogs while the glossopharyngeal (GP) nerve fibres were electrically stimulated. Two types of slow potential, slow hyperpolarizing potentials (HPs) and slow depolarizing potentials (DPs), were induced in the taste cells. The slow HPs appeared when the lingual capillary blood flow was kept above 0.7 mm/s, whereas the slow...
