“…The role of L-glutamate signaling through mGlu receptors in the context of peripheral sensory cellsi.e., visual, taste, and pain sensory cells-has been previously extensively reviewed (Karim et al, 2001;Neugebauer and Carlton, 2002;Bigiani, 2005;Connaughton, 2005;Shigemura et al, 2009;Yasumatsu et al, 2009). The following sections summarize more recent evidence for a role of mGlu receptors in regulation of sensory organ function and its pharmacological manipulation.…”

“…Las células receptoras del gusto, denominadas TRCs (sigla en inglés para Taste receptor cells), se encargan de detectar las sustancias químicas de los alimentos y envían estas informaciones sensoriales al cerebro a través de la activación de sinapsis específica en las fibras nerviosas del gusto (Bigiani, 2005). Sin embargo, para que se produzca esa sensación gustativa es necesario que dichas sustancias se disuelvan en la saliva y se pongan en contacto con las microvellosidades de las células gustativas presentes en los botones gustativos.…”

“…Los cinco gustos se sienten en toda la lengua. También hay sensibilidad a los cinco gustos básicos en la faringe, el paladar y la epiglotis, debido a la presencia de TRCs en estas áreas (Bigiani, 2005).…”

“…Much of the research on umami supports the view that it provides a taste signal allowing humans, primates, and other mammals to identify foods that are rich in protein. And in recent years an l-glutamate taste receptor has been identified, clinching the view that umami is a genuine taste and not simply the product of combining the other four tastes in some fashion (Bigiani 2005;Chaudhari et al 2002;Nelson et al 2002;Yamaguchi and Ninomiya 2000). One might therefore conclude that umami is what made meat so attractive to early hominins and to our closest primate relative, the chimpanzee, regardless of whether or not it was cooked.…”
