Neurobehavioral plasticity in the rodent gustatory system induced by regular consumption of a low-calorie sweetener during adolescence by Clare M. Mathes, Sarah J. Terrill, Juan P. Taborda-Bejarano, Sandrine Chometton, Mallory J. Witt, Gaurikka Mendiratta, Emily G. Gilman, Delenn R. Hartswick, Bo M. Anderson, Lindsey A. Schier

“…These behavior shifts, which endured months after the end of Ace-K exposure, were accompanied by widespread changes in the peripheral taste system. The anterior tongue had fewer fungiform taste papillae, and the circumvallate papillae had a reduced anterior to posterior span and diminished expression of genes involved in sweet reception, sweet and bitter intracellular signaling, fructose transport, and cellular progeneration in the Ace-K-exposed rats. …”
