Abstract
The sensitive nerves of the papillary plexus are considered to be soley responsible for the normal differentiation of taste bud cells in the circumvallate papillae of the rat. The effect of sialectomy on taste bud cells was studied. Evaluation of results was performed through cell counts. The major salivary glands are quite important in both differentiation and maturation of taste bud cells.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
