Learned taste aversions in children receiving chemotherapy.
Children with neoplastic diseases were offered an unusual ice cream before their drug treatments. Patients experiencing gastrointestinal toxicity due to the drugs were subsequently less likely to choose that ice cream again than controls. This suggests that taste aversions induced by drug-associated symptoms may contribute to the appetite loss experienced by cancer patients.
متن کاملOntogeny of long-term memory for learned taste aversions.
Eighteen-day-old and adult rats were trained on a learned taste-aversion (illness reinforced) or a lick-suppression (shock reinforced) task and tested for retention after either 1, 28, or 56 days. Young rats showed a retention deficit relative to adults in the lick-suppression task but not for taste-aversion learning. Young rats did, however, show relatively less suppression to the saline solut...
متن کاملPhenylthiocarbamide produces conditioned taste aversions in mice.
Previous work has demonstrated that SWR/J (SW) mice avoid phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) to a greater degree than C3HeB/FeJ mice in 48 h, two-bottle preference tests given in ascending series. The authors hypothesized, based also on previous work, that SW mice might form a conditioned taste aversion over time due to the toxic properties of PTC. We directly tested this hypothesis by attempting to con...
متن کاملTargets of learned food aversions in humans.
In order to determine whether some nutrients are more salient targets than others for the development of learned taste aversions a large group of normal human subjects were surveyed about their experiences with such aversions. The targets of these spontaneously occurring food aversions were identified and classified into general food categories. A prominent category for human aversions proved t...
متن کاملAge-dependent differences in morphine-induced taste aversions.
Adolescence is a developmental period of particular importance given the host of neurobiological changes that occur during this stage of development. Drug use and abuse is said to be a function of the balance of its rewarding and aversive effects, and any age-dependent differences in morphine's aversive effects could impact drug intake. The present experiments examined the ability of morphine s...
