  • Title: Ionic basis of receptor potential in frog taste cell in response to salt stimuli.
    Author: Sato T, Sugimoto K, Okada Y.
    Journal: Jpn J Physiol; 1982; 32(3):459-62. PubMed ID: 6982363.
    Abstract:
    Removal of NA+ and/or Ca2+ from a normal interstitial fluid results in a remarkable decrease of receptor potential amplitudes in a taste cell for salt stimuli. This suggests that the salt-induced receptor potential is strongly related to an increase in the permeability of the taste cell membrane to Na+ and Ca2+.
