| Abstract: | Examination of the structural and functional organization of tactile receptor structures in the rat tongue shows that the
filiform mechanosensory papillae occupying the anterior free surface of the tongue are innervated by adrenergic, cholinergic,
and peptidergic fibers. The location and sources of histamine are identified. All these components are thought to be involved
in organizing the pain sensitivity of mechanosensory lingual formations.
