Feeding behavior is critical for insect survival and fitness.Most researchers have explored the molecular basis of feeding behaviors by identifying and elucidating the function of olfactory receptors(ORs)and gustatory...
Background: Smell and taste loss are highly prevalent symptoms in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), although few studies have employed objective measures to quantify these symptoms, especially dysgeusia. Reports of...
Taste receptors were named for their originally-identified expression on the tongue and role in the sensation of taste (gustation). They are now known to be involved in many che-mosensory processes outside the tongue....

The morphological changes that occur in the taste buds after denervation are not well under- stood in rats, especially in the contralateral tongue epithelium. In this study, we investigated the time course of morpholo...
Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), as a non-invasive neuroimaging technique, was used to monitor the activation of prefrontal lobe on human brain during sweet taste processing. The primary aim of the prese...
From the chemotaxis of microorganisms to the chemical sense of high animals, the respective threshold values of stimuli effected by a homologous series of alcohols, aldehydes, or carboxylic acids, i.e. H(CH2)nX, whe...
