The distribution of amiloride-sensitive sodium channels (ASSCs) in taste buds isolated from the oral cavity of hamsters was assessed by patch clamp recording. In contrast to the case for rats, taste cells from the fungiform, foliate and vallate papillae and from the soft palate all contain functional ASSCs. The differential distribution of ASSCs between the hamster and the rat may be important for understanding the physiology underlying the differing behavioral responses of these species to sodium salts.
通过膜片钳记录评估了从仓鼠口腔分离的味蕾中氨氯地平敏感钠通道（ASSCs）的分布。与大鼠的情况不同，来自菌状乳头、叶状乳头和轮廓乳头以及软腭的味觉细胞均含有功能性ASSCs。仓鼠和大鼠之间ASSCs的差异分布可能对于理解这些物种对钠盐不同行为反应背后的生理学机制很重要。
