Chemical Receptor Sensory Systems

Chemical Receptor Sensory Systems explores chemosenses through the lens of pharmacologic theory, and how chemosensory systems, from the molecular level to the behavior of organisms, must behave given that their operations are functions of receptor pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Throughout the book, information on concentration-dependence of chemical stimulation and likely relationship to receptor occupancy is strongly emphasized. In cases where a departure from expected pharmacologic behavior is encountered in the chemosenses, the discussion is directed toward probable explanations for the apparent disconnect.

This book provides a new resource that on all chemosenses topics within a unifying conceptual framework of the science of pharmacology. It will be useful to a variety of researchers and graduate students in pharmacology, biology and physiology of sensory systems, researchers in sensory psychology, research scientists in food & nutritional scientists, as well as clinical staff.
