The paper identifies dying taste receptor cells in murine taste buds and shows that glial-like Type I cells engulf them, suggesting a phagocytic role for Type I cells.

The paper examines neural connectivity in mouse taste buds, finding that most nerve fibers connect to a single cell type, but some branch to connect to multiple types, challenging the labeled-line hypothesis.

The paper uses serial blockface scanning electron microscopy to describe the morphology and distribution of cell types in mouse circumvallate taste buds.
