Definition (MSHCZE) Malé smyslové orgány složené z chuťových receptorů, bazálních buněk a buněk podpůrných. Chuťové pohárky jsou u lidí uloženy v epitelu jazyka, patra a hltanu. Jsou inervovány prostřednictvím CHORDA TYMPANI (větev nervus facialis) a NERVUS GLOSSOPHARYNGEUS.

Definition (MSH) Small sensory organs which contain gustatory receptor cells, basal cells, and supporting cells. Taste buds in humans are found in the epithelia of the tongue, palate, and pharynx. They are innervated by the CHORDA TYMPANI NERVE (a branch of the facial nerve) and the GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE.
