Fatty Acid Taste Quality Information via <scp>GPR40</scp> and <scp>CD36</scp> in the Posterior Tongue of Mice
These results suggest that GPR120 contributes only to the existence of F-type fibers and that CD36 and GPR40 mediate the palatable umami or sweet taste of FAs via the activation of S- and M-type fibers in the GL nerve.
