Advances in bitterness receptors T2Rs in different diseases
Bitterness,as one of the most important physiological sensations in animals,is primarily recognized through the mediation of bitter taste receptors.In recent years,it has been found that these receptors are not only expressed in taste bud cells on the tongue but also in the respiratory,cardiovascular,digestive,reproductive,and nervous systems.They are involved in regulating various fundamental physiological processes and are now considered important targets for the treatment of various diseases.This paper reviewed the structure,classification,distribution,and signaling pathways of bitter taste receptors,their relationship with different diseases,and the role of bitter taste receptors agonists,aiming to provide a basis for scientific research on bitter taste receptors.
