Two neuronal groups for NaCl with differential taste response properties and topographical distributions in the rat parabrachial nucleus

Abstract It is crucial for animals to discriminate between palatable (safe) and aversive (toxic) tastants. The mechanisms underlying neuronal discrimination of taste stimuli remain unclear. We examined relations between taste response properties (spike counts, response duration, and coefficient of v...
