DOI: 10.1016/j.appet.2017.09.004
Abstract: Individual differences in taste perception may influence appetite, dietary intakes, and subsequently, disease risk. Correlations of DNA methylation patterns at taste transducing genes with BMI and dietary intakes were studied. A nutriepigenomic analysis within the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2110158119
Abstract: Significance Sweet taste neurons in both Drosophila and mice are often thought to be hardwired to promote appetitive responses and signal the presence of reward. Here, exploiting Drosophila females’ robust rejection of sucrose substrates over… read more here.
