Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The coding mechanisms including neural pathways that transduce the taste senses information remain unknown. To elucidate these matters, we have developed novel trans-synaptic tracer transgenes that enable the visualization of neural circuits originating from two distinct cell populations simultaneously. The correlation among the neural circuits originate from four populations of taste receptor cells were revealed by the developed visualization technique in this study.
