Nutrients
. 2024 May;
16(9).
PMID: 38732551
The salivary protein, Gustin/carbonic anhydrase VI, has been described as a trophic factor responsible for the growth of taste buds. We found, in a genetically homogeneous population, that the polymorphism...

Comput Struct Biotechnol J
. 2024 Jan;
21:1054-1065.
PMID: 38213886
Several studies were focused on the genetic ability to taste the bitter compound 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) to assess the inter-individual taste variability in humans, and its effect on food predilections, nutrition,...

Sci Rep
. 2023 Oct;
13(1):17581.
PMID: 37845345
The gustatory, olfactory, and trigeminal systems are anatomically separated. However, they interact cognitively to give rise to oral perception, which can significantly affect health and quality of life. We built...

Biomedicines
. 2023 Aug;
11(8).
PMID: 37626630
In healthy humans, taste sensitivity varies widely, influencing food selection and nutritional status. Chemosensory loss has been associated with numerous pathological disorders and pharmacological interventions. Reliable psychophysical methods are crucial...

Melis M, Tomassini Barbarossa I, Sollai G
Nutrients
. 2023 Aug;
15(15).
PMID: 37571348
Taste and olfaction are sensory modalities that act synergistically to orchestrate the behaviors essential for survival, such as interactions with the environment, nutrient-rich food identification, and the avoidance of noxious...

Melis M, Tomassini Barbarossa I, Crnjar R, Sollai G
Nutrients
. 2022 Dec;
14(23).
PMID: 36501016
Smell strongly contributes to food choice and its hedonistic evaluation. A reduction or loss of smell has been related to malnutrition problems, resulting in excessive weight loss or gain. Voltage-gated...

Melis M, Mastinu M, Naciri L, Muroni P, Tomassini Barbarossa I
Nutrients
. 2022 Nov;
14(22).
PMID: 36432589
Individual differences in sweet taste sensitivity can affect dietary preferences as well as nutritional status. Despite the lack of consensus, it is believed that sweet taste is impacted by genetic...

J Food Sci
. 2022 Sep;
88(S1):65-90.
PMID: 36169921
Taste and olfaction elicit conscious feelings by direct connection with the neural circuits of emotions that affects physiological responses in the body (e.g., heart rate and skin conductance). While sensory...

Nutrients
. 2022 Apr;
14(7).
PMID: 35406108
Diet and salivary proteins influence the composition of the oral microbiome, and recent data suggest that TAS2R38 bitter taste genetics may also play a role. We investigated the effects of...
