Persistence of taste buds in denervated fungiform papillae

Taste buds in hamster fungiform papillae persist in an atrophic state for as long as 330 days after chorda tympani denervation or 50 days after combined chorda tympani-lingual nerve resection. Although taste bud structure depends on innervation, there is no absolute neural requirement for taste bud...

Zusammenfassung:Taste buds in hamster fungiform papillae persist in an atrophic state for as long as 330 days after chorda tympani denervation or 50 days after combined chorda tympani-lingual nerve resection. Although taste bud structure depends on innervation, there is no absolute neural requirement for taste bud survival.
