Title: Sense of Taste
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and function of taste buds.
Describe the relationship between the taste threshold and taste index of common substances.
Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

2. Top 5 Mental Problems
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Suicide
• Eating disorders
• Drug Addiction
3. DEPRESSION
• Depressive illnesses are disorders of the
brain and are likely caused by a combination
of genetics, biological, psychological and
environmental factors. Symptoms for
depression differ from person to person. It is
caused by a chemical imbalance in our
brains, so the way one displays depressive
signs is not, necessarily, the way symptoms
emerge in others.
4. • Survey
– the Association for University and College Counseling Center
Directors, 36.4% of college students reported they experienced
some level of depression in 2013.
5. SYMPTOMS
• Feelings of sadness or unhappiness
• Change in appetite or weight
• Slowed thinking or speech
• Loss of interest in activities or social gatherings
• Fatigue, loss in energy, sleeplessness
• Feelings of guilt or anger over past failures
• Trouble concentrating, indecisiveness
• Anger or frustration for no distinct reason
• Thoughts of dying, death and suicide
6. ANXIETY
• In moderation, stress and anxiety are a
part of most people’s lives. Simply
experiencing these feelings does not
mean you have an anxiety disorder.
Anxiety disorders occur when anxiety
interferes with your daily life, halting
your ability to function, and causing an
immense amount of stress and fearful
feelings.
7. SURVEY
• The Anxiety and Depression Association of
America (ADAA) reports that anxiety disorders
are the most common mental illness in the
U.S.; they affect 40 million adults over the age
of 18, yet only one-third seek and receive
treatment. The ADAA goes on to say that
nearly 75% of those affected by an anxiety
disorder will experience their first episode
before the age of 22.
8. SYMPTOMS
• Symptoms of anxiety disorders can be Panic attacks may be
mistaken as a physical ailment, such as a heart attack or tension
headache, depending on how your body responds to the increased
levels of certain chemicals. Common Symptoms of anxiety are:
• Feelings of stress and apprehension
• Irritability
• Fearfulness
• Shortness of breath
9. SUICIDE
• College can be a stressful time. Feelings of guilt, hopelessness and
despair can build when students don’t take steps to cope with
stressors. Suicide is defined as the act of deliberately taking one’s
own life, and it is the second leading cause of death among college
students.
10. SURVEY
• In a 2011 report from Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, there
were 39,518 suicides reported in the
U.S., making it the 10th leading cause
of death that year. Statistics show that
10% of college students has thought
about or made a plan to commit
suicide. There are over 1,000 suicidal
deaths on college campuses in the
U.S. every year
11. Signs
• Talk of suicide, wanting to die, or dropping hints about suicidal
thoughts
• Abrupt change in personality and behavior
• Avoiding friends or social activities
• Sudden calmness after a long period of depression
• Family mental health history
12. EATING DISORDER
• Eating disorders are extreme behaviors, emotions and attitudes that
revolve around food and weight issues. These disorders cause
serious mental and physical problems that can result in life-
threatening issues when left untreated.
13. STATISTICS
According to statistics provided by the National
Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated
Disorders (ANAD):
– People ages 12-25 represent 95% of those with eating disorders
– Anorexia is the third most common chronic illness in adolescents
– 91% of college women attempt to control their weight through
dieting
– 25% of college women binge and purge to manage their weight
14. SOME EATING DISORDERS
• Anorexia Nervosa - Characterized by an
unhealthy fixation on thinness, distorted body
image and fears of gaining w
• Bulimia Nervosa - This is a binge eating
disorder, involving recurrent and frequent
episodes of eating unusually large amounts of
foodeight
• Binge Eating Disorder - BED is characterized
by constant cravings that occur any time of day
and that then result in binge eating.
15. SYMPTOMS
• Distorted or poor body image
• Excessive exercise
• Irregular heartbeats
• Dehydration
• Feeling like eating is out of control
• Fear of eating in public
• Constantly making excuses for eating habits
16. ADDICTION
• An addiction is defined as a dependency and repeated abuse of a
substance such as Partying and engaging in alcohol and drug use
has become commonplace on many college campuses throughout
the U.S drugs or alcohol. Partying and engaging in alcohol and drug
use has become commonplace on many college campuses
throughout the U.S
17. • AccordingThe National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism (NIAAA) reports that:
• About 80% of college students drink
• About 50% of those are binge drinkers
• 1,825 students, ages 18 to 24, die from alcohol-related injuries
annually
• Students are more likely to be assaulted, sexually abused or injured
by someone who’s been drinking
• About 25% of students who drink regularly report academic
problems
18. SYMPTOMS
• Slurred speech, bloodshot eyes or impaired coordination
• Fearful, anxious or paranoid for no apparent reason
• sudden need for money or financial crisis
• Deterioration of physical appearance, such as weight loss or gain,
and change in personal grooming habits
• A sudden change in friends, activities or hobbies
19. Conclusion
• It is important to take your mental health seriously and to seek help
if you think you or a friend is at risk. If someone you’re related to has
suffered from a mental illness, know that your genetics could be a
factor in your development of a mental condition. Research your
mental health treatment options on campus, and get involved with
support groups, or consult your student health center to learn more
about student wellness. Take charge of your life on campus, and
take the first step towards a healthy college career.
