The Contribution of SERCA to Taste Perception Figure 6. Altered taste responses of Serca3 KO mice in brief-access taste tests. Taste preferences of WT and Serca3 KO animals were measured relative to water using a brief-access taste test. Taste responses are expressed as taste/water lick ratios of Serca3 KO (filled bars) and WT (open bars) mice to (A) saccharin, (B) MSG in the presence of 100 mM amiloride and 1 mM IMP, (C) denatonium, (D) quinine, (E) citric acid, and (F) NaCl. Data are means 6 SEMs (n = 7). Mixed-model ANOVA and post hoc t-tests were performed (**p,0.01). doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0023165.g006 PLoS ONE | www.plosone.org 6 August 2011 | Volume 6 | Issue 8 | e23165
