The Impact of Exercise on Dietary Fat Taste Perception: A Report on Its Role in Obesity Prevention.

Dietary fat taste, a distinct gustatory modality that greatly influences food choice and energy intake, is primarily mediated by the lingual receptors CD36 and GPR120. Recent studies show that both short-term and long-term physical activity can modulate sensitivity to long-chain fatty acids, which can lead to changes in dietary patterns and preferences for high-fat foods. This review specifically examines the effects of exercise on the perception of fat taste by integrating findings from human and animal studies that examine alterations in detection thresholds, suprathreshold intensity ratings, and hedonic responses to fatty stimuli.

Systemic Psoriasis: From Molecular Mechanisms to Global Management Strategies.

Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disorder marked by a complex interplay between genetic predisposition, cytokine dysregulation, and environmental triggers. Originally perceived as a superficial dermatological condition, it is now recognized as a systemic disease with far-reaching health implications. Advances in molecular genetics have uncovered over 80 susceptibility loci, with key variants such as HLA-C*06:02, IL23R, and CARD14 contributing to the multifactorial nature of the disorder.

Prehabilitation Strategies: Enhancing Surgical Resilience with a Focus on Nutritional Optimization and Multimodal Interventions.

Surgery imposes significant physiological and psychological stress, often leading to complications, delayed recovery, and prolonged hospital stays. Prehabilitation, a proactive strategy to optimize patients' resilience before surgery, has emerged as a transformative approach in perioperative care. Nutritional prehabilitation specifically addresses metabolic dysregulation, muscle loss, and immune suppression caused by surgical stress.

Emerging perspectives: the interplay of taste perception and oral microbiota composition in dietary preferences and obesity.

Recent advancements in sensory research have brought to light the intricate relationship between taste perception and the oral microbiota, prompting investigations into their influence on human health, particularly in the context of dietary preferences and obesity. This review aims to update the current understanding of how oral microbiota influence taste perception and dietary choices, elucidating shared metabolic pathways between food processing and oral bacteria. Further, this review outlines the mechanisms underlying taste perception, emphasising the role of taste receptors and taste buds in shaping sensory experiences influenced by genetic and environmental factors.

CD36 genetic polymorphism and salivary cues are associated with oleic acid sensitivity and dietary fat intake.

There is a lack of research on the combined effects of genetic variations (specifically CD36 SNPs-rs1761667 and rs1527483), dietary food habits (vegetarian or not), and the salivary environment on obesity and taste sensitivity, especially in the Indian population. The current study aims to better understand the relationship between impaired taste perception, fat consumption, higher BMI and obesity development by examining the combined association between CD36 SNPs, oleic acid (OA) detection threshold, and food habits among Indian participants. Furthermore, the relationship between oral fatty acid (FAs) sensitivity and taste physiology factors linked to inflammation and salivary proteins was considered.

Exercise modifies fatty acid perception and metabolism.

Aim: Obesity is a major public health issue, which is associated with several chronic diseases. In rodents, voluntary wheel running (VWR) is a type of exercise that influences ingestive behavior. This study aims to investigate the possible function of VWR activity in the perception of fat taste and if it mitigates the immediate effects of fatty acid (FA) ingestion.

Tongue papillae density and fat taster status- a cardinal role on sweet and bitter taste perception among Indian population.

Obesity is a complex nutritional disorder that may be influenced by calorie intake and eating behaviours. Aside from many studies, the influence of papillae count on obesity is still debated. Despite the multiple variables connected to weight gain and altered taste perception, determining the association between papillae count and taste sensitivity to fat, sweet and bitter tastes, in particular, has recently become a focus of attention.

Genetic variation in sweet taste receptors and a mechanistic perspective on sweet and fat taste sensation in the context of obesity.

Taste sensation enables humans to make nutritionally important decisions such as food preference and consumption. It functions as deterministic factors for unpropitious eating behavior, leading to overweight and obesity. The hedonistic feeling on consumption of fat and sugar-rich meals, in particular, has a negative influence on health.

CD36 and GPR120 mediated orogustatory perception of dietary lipids and its physiological implication in the pygmy mouse Mus booduga.

Fat taste perception has long been concerned in the regulation of dietary fat intake. Substantial experimental evidence defends fat as a sixth taste modality, but its allied peripheral mechanisms are not yet well established. The present study aimed to analyse the diet-induced changes in fat taste perception and its associated physiological variations in Mus booduga.

Single nucleotide polymorphism in CD36: Correlation to peptide YY levels in obese and non-obese adults.

Background & Aims: Human beings are often driven to exhibit dietary preference according to their hedonic characteristics. Though previous studies proposed that the fat taste preference of an obese individual was associated with BMI, the perception of fat taste differs for every individual. The genetic variation among populations in taste receptor genes such as CD36 may be a contributing factor for this difference.

Anti-Obesity Effect of T. Chebula Fruit Extract on High Fat Diet Induced Obese Mice: A Possible Alternative Therapy.

Occurrence of obesity and its associated metabolic disorders continues to escalate. The present study evaluates the anti-obesity effects of ethanolic fruit extract of Terminalia chebula (EETC) on high fat diet induced obese mice. The bioactive compounds present in the EETC is evaluated by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis.

Fat taste signal transduction and its possible negative modulator components.

The incidence of obesity and its associated diseases including diabetes and various cardiovascular disease continues to escalate. Since the energy homeostasis executes a substantial role in fat-rich food intake and body weight regulation, it grows into a prevalent subject of interest for its strong energy density and high palatability. Over the decade, the notion that the dietary fatty acids convey signaling cues to oro-gustatory system embrace profound ability in understanding its function along with its perception of dietary fats.

Insights on modulators in perception of taste modalities: a review.

A major challenge in taste research is to overcome the flavour imperfections in food products and to build nutritious strategies to combat against obesity as well as other related metabolic syndromes. The field of molecular taste research and chemical senses has contributed to an enormous development in understanding the taste receptors and mechanisms of taste perception. Accordingly, the development of taste-modifying compounds or taste modulators that alter the perception of basic taste modalities has gained significant prominence in the recent past.
