Abstract
This study aimed to examine gustducin immunoreactivities when adopting various immunostaining conditions in rat vallate taste buds. The occurrence and intensity of the immunoreactivities exhibited specific patterns in accordance with the fixation time. The immunoreactions were localized to only taste hairs, the upper part of the taste bud, after short fixation periods but then to the cell-body cytoplasm excluding the taste hairs after long fixation periods. These immunohistochemical data suggest that the staining protocols, especially the fixation time, cause discrepancies in gustducin immunoreactivities.
期刊介绍：
The Archives of Histology and Cytology provides prompt publication in English of original works on the histology and histochemistry of man and animals. The articles published are in principle restricted to studies on vertebrates, but investigations using invertebrates may be accepted when the intention and results present issues of common interest to vertebrate researchers. Pathological studies may also be accepted, if the observations and interpretations are deemed to contribute toward increasing knowledge of the normal features of the cells or tissues concerned. This journal will also publish reviews offering evaluations and critical interpretations of recent studies and theories.
