Peripheral Taste System in Inbred Mouse Strains
… been shown to be tasters have a larger number of fungiform papillae, have larger fungiform papillae and have larger taste buds. My work in this study involved counting the number of fungiform papillae from male and female of each strain, utilizing green food dye under light microscopy. I also …

Taste physiological mechanisms and their health implications, analyzed by genetic, epigenetic, and artificial intelligence analyses
… enabled the reliable and automatic detection of fungiform papillae, overcoming the limitations of the manual method. On the molecular level, we demonstrated that methylation of the Gustin gene influences salivary protein levels and fungiform papillae density, while methylation of the TAS2R38 gene …

Gross and Microscopic Observations on the Lingual Structure of the West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
… tip was free and mobile. Numerous filiform papillae were distributed over the dorsal surface of the rostral lingual region. Caudal to the filiform papillae, multiple raised, round papillae were distributed over the majority of the dorsum. Fungiform papillae were restricted to the lateral …

Astringency and other oral sensations : biological sources of individual variation and association with food and beverage behaviour
… orosensory stimuli. Gender, age, ethnicity, and fungiform papillae (FP) density were not associated with orosensory responsiveness to tastants, an astringent, and a flavour. Unlike PROP responsiveness, FP density was not associated with TTS. Both PROP responsiveness and TTS were associated with …

Sensitivity to chemical stimuli plays a fundamental role in the food preferences. Examples in the evolutionary scale: 1. Role of the walking leg chemoreceptors in the red swamp crayfish Procambarus Clarkii 2. PROP bitter taste sensitivity and its nutritional implications in Humans
… taste receptors TAS2R38 and with density of fungiform papillae on tongue surface. Although most of PROP phenotypic variations are explained by the allelic diversity of the bitter receptor TAS2R38, they cannot explain the PROP taster status-related differences above all that in the perception …

Neural and Psychological Mechanisms of Oral Sensation
… differences with differing densities of fungiform papillae on the tongue. Using psychophysical methods and the taster status phenotype, this thesis examined if different regions of the tongue and mouth experienced different chemostimulant intensity and if dynamic touch changed the …
