Physiol., 129:351–377) provide an excellent opportunity to return to the fundamental issue of the solvation of amino acids and their thermodynamic stability in different environments (Andersen, 2007). Though seemingly “solved” long ago, in recent years this issue has ...

Breadth of tuning in taste afferent neurons varies with stimulus strength

Gustatory stimuli are detected by taste buds and transmitted to the hindbrain via sensory afferent neurons. Whether each taste quality (sweet, bitter and so on) is encoded by separate neurons ('labelled lines') remains controversial. We used mice expressing GCaMP3 in geniculate ganglion sensory neurons to investigate taste-evoked activity. Using confocal calcium imaging, we recorded responses t...
