一碗同等糖份的紅豆沙，如果將熱紅豆沙和凍紅豆沙比較的話，熱紅豆沙感覺起上來總是會比較甜，究竟為何會這樣呢？1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh07Tg07zD

答案就在於舌頭上的味蕾感測機制之上。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMszTddZ7X
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOezs0JvYu
（圖2）我們的舌頭上佈滿味蕾細胞，主要功能是為我們感測食物的味道。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah0AuDqhfX
以感測甜味為例，以下為扼要的簡化過程。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7uGMg59Xh
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVJUck3akk
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhnKI3dNK1
1.甜味物質與味蕾上的T1R2及T1R3合併。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYElLruZaqE
(Type1 Taste Receptor member 2 and 3)1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJYNeVQKNR

2.其後觸發一系列的細胞反應，並產生出鈣離子(Ca2+ ion)。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF48r10nCQK
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEaP08lUSW
3. 鈣離子觸動TRPM5，產生電流。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxhlfULYZu
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtxkE2f3Ox
4. 電流經由神經細胞傳到大腦。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDzcJuPJTM
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3khhWmrky
5. 大腦分析電流訊息，製造甜味的感覺。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCQdWoNAqx

（圖3）那麼，為何熱紅豆沙會比較甜呢？玄機就在圖中機制的第三步。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVxYn96eA9
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIYRKJwMci
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVT1I2J9DSC
TRPM5除了能夠感測鈣離子後，亦能感測溫度。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zE6JB4UhP
若然食物溫度提升的話，TRPM5所發出的電流強度便會有所增長。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8HP2g2T74
而電流越強的話，大腦便會轉遞出越甜的感覺。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXO4m2kYMm
1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S4r0VfRyY
而正正就是因為這個緣故，儘管糖份一樣，熱紅豆沙食起上來會比凍紅豆沙感覺起上來會比較甜。1516Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYDmftgP1e
