Figure 3

Representative integrated CT nerve response traces recorded at day 7 (water and acute LPS) or day 35 (chronic LPS) from mice gavaged with (a) water, (b) acute LPS, or (c) chronic LPS. Responses to sweet and salt tastants appeared smaller in LPS-treated mice compared to water-gavaged control mice. Responses to additional bitter, acid, and umami taste stimuli are not shown. Stimulus series are bracketed by NH4Cl responses (one shown per series). Dotted vertical lines indicate stimulus application and rinse. The scale bar under the first response for each mouse represents 20 s.
