摘要: Calcium salts are strong taste stimuli in vertebrate animals. However, the chemosensory transduction mechanisms for calcium not known. In buds of Necturus maculosus (mud puppy), evokes depolarizing receptor potentials by acting extracellularly on apical ends cells to block a resting potassium conductance. Therefore, divalent cations elicit modulating conductance rather than permeating cell membrane, mechanism utilized monovalent such as sodium and ions.
