Nerve and behavioral responses of mice to various umami substances.
Food contains various taste substances. Among them, umami substances play an important role with regard to the perception of the taste of food, but, few studies have examined the taste characteristics of representative umami substances other than monosodium L-glutamate (MSG). By conducting mouse behavioral studies (the 48-h 2-bottle preference test and the conditioned taste aversion test) and a...
متن کاملBrain activation by umami substances via gustatory and visceral signaling pathways, and physiological significance.
Monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) elicits a unique taste termed umami and is widely used as a flavor enhancer in a variety of cuisines. Recent studies suggest the existence of L-glutamate (GLU) receptors and its transduction molecules in the gut mucosa as well as in the oral cavity. The vagal gastric afferent fibers respond specifically to the luminal stimulation of GLU in the stomach. GLU administr...
متن کاملFunctional neuroimaging of umami taste: what makes umami pleasant?
The cortical processing of umami shows what makes it pleasant and appetitive. The pleasantness of umami reflects and is correlated with processing in the secondary taste cortex in the orbitofrontal cortex and tertiary taste cortex in the anterior cingulate cortex, whereas processing in the primary (insular) taste cortex reflects physical properties such as intensity. However, glutamate presente...
متن کاملAssessment of Umami Taste Sensitivity
Patients with gustatory disorders often complain of persistent impairment of umami taste, a synonym for savory or broth-like flavor, even after the recovery of the other four basic taste sensations (sweet, salty, sour, and bitter). Umami taste is important for maintaining not only the quality of life but also good health, and therefore, it seems important to assess and treat the impairment of u...
متن کاملVariation in umami perception and in candidate genes for the umami receptor in mice and humans.
The unique taste induced by monosodium glutamate is referred to as umami taste. The umami taste is also elicited by the purine nucleotides inosine 5'-monophosphate and guanosine 5'-monophosphate. There is evidence that a heterodimeric G protein-coupled receptor, which consists of the T1R1 (taste receptor type 1, member 1, Tas1r1) and the T1R3 (taste receptor type 1, member 3, Tas1r3) proteins, ...
