Although neural responses were higher in the PbN of chronic CTX rats compared to acute-sectioned controls, taste-evoked activity was much lower than observed in previous reports, suggesting permanent deficits in taste signaling. These findings demonstrate that the developing gustatory hindbrain exhibits high functional plasticity following early nerve injury.NEW NOTEWORTHY Early and chronic loss of taste input from the chorda tympani is associated with abnormal taste behaviors. We found that compared to when the chorda tympani
