  • Title: Fluorescent dye (DiI) reveals the sensory cells in the lingual epithelium: a confocal laser scanning microscopic study.
    Author: Nagai T.
    Journal: Jpn J Physiol; 1993; 43 Suppl 1():S179-81. PubMed ID: 8271492.
    Abstract:
    Fluorescent carbocyanine dye was applied to the glossopharyngeal nerve of axolotls fixed with paraformaldehyde. Three cell types in the lingual epithelium were transneuronally labeled: chemosensory taste receptor cells and presumably mechanosensory basal cells in the taste buds, and epithelial cells with unknown function in the non-taste lingual epithelium.
