Abstract
The exact nature of taste adaptation is not known. Intracellular recordings from taste receptor cells are appropriate to clarify cellular adaptation properties. I approached the study of the sugar and salt receptor mechanisms of mammalian taste cells with cross-adaptation experiments. Sucrose pre-adaptation suppresses the cross-adaptation responses to salts. The results show that the taste adaptation is located in the taste receptor cell.
