CALHM1 ion channel mediates purinergic neurotransmission of sweet, bitter and umami tastes

Recognition of sweet, bitter and umami tastes requires the non-vesicular release from taste bud cells of adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP), which acts as a neurotransmitter to activate afferent neural gustatory pathways(1). However, how ATP is released to fulfill this function is not fully understood....
