The zinc receptor, ZnR/GPR39, modulates taste sensitivity by regulating ion secretion in mouse salivary gland

Summary: Reduced saliva secretion, dry mouth, and loss of taste are debilitating symptoms associated with zinc deficiency. A mechanism for zinc regulation of these processes is lacking. Here, we identified the Zn2+ sensing receptor ZnR/GPR39 as a mediator of ion transport in salivary gland epitheliu...
