The enteroendocrine profile and distribution patterns of the taste signaling molecules, α-gustducin (Gαgust) and α-transducin (Gαtran) protein subunits, were studied in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of the chicken (Gallus domesticus) using double labeling immunohistochemistry. Gαtran or Gαgust immunoreactivity was observed in enteroendocrine cells (EEC) expressing different peptides throughout the entire GI...
