The Sensing Liver: Localization and Ligands for Hepatic Murine Olfactory and Taste Receptors
Sensory receptors, including olfactory receptors (ORs), taste receptors (TRs), and opsins (Opns) have recently been found in a variety of non-sensory tissues where they have distinct physiological functions. As G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), these proteins can serve as important chemosensors b...
