Bitter Taste Receptor T2R14 and Autophagy Flux in Gingival Epithelial Cells

Macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy) is a lysosomal degradation pathway that functions in nutrient recycling and as a mechanism of innate immunity. Previously, we reported a novel host–bacteria interaction between cariogenic <i>S. mutans</i> and bitter taste receptor (T2R14) in gingival...
