Anatomical and Functional Connectivity at the Dendrodendritic Reciprocal Mitral Cell–Granule Cell Synapse: Impact on Recurrent and Lateral Inhibition [PDF]
In the vertebrate olfactory bulb, reciprocal dendrodendritic interactions between its principal neurons, the mitral and tufted cells, and inhibitory interneurons in the external plexiform layer mediate both recurrent and lateral inhibition, with the most

Mitral cell spike synchrony modulated by dendrodendritic synapse location
On their long lateral dendrites, mitral cells of the olfactory bulb form dendrodendritic synapses with large populations of granule cell interneurons. The mitral-granule cell microcircuit operating through these reciprocal synapses has been implicated in

Myeloid Cells Remodel the Mitral Valve [PDF]
Article, see p 2478 Mitral valve disease is a degenerative cardiac pathology that increases markedly with age in the Western Hemisphere. Rheumatic heart disease is another frequent cause of valve pathology, in particular, in developing countries. In this condition, valvular damage arises from autoimmune responses after group A streptococcal infection,

A common feature of the primary processing structures of sensory systems is the presence of parallel output “channels” that convey different information about a stimulus.

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE)–a major complication of liver disease–has been found to increase the risk of olfactory dysfunction, which may be attributed to elevated levels of ammonia/ammonium in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid.

Spindle cell sarcoma of the mitral valve: a rare indication for mitral valve replacement [PDF]
Primary cardiac tumours are a rare finding and even rarer cause of valvular heart disease. We report a case of cardiac spindle cell sarcoma mimicking mitral valve stenosis and the subsequent operative management.

Subpopulations of Projection Neurons in the Olfactory Bulb
Generation of neuronal diversity is a biological strategy widely used in the brain to process complex information. The olfactory bulb is the first relay station of olfactory information in the vertebrate central nervous system.

The periglomerular cell of the olfactory bulb and its role in controlling mitral cell spiking: a computational model. [PDF]
Interneurons in the olfactory bulb are key elements of odor processing but their roles have not yet being fully understood. Two types of inhibitory interneurons, periglomerular and granule cells, act at two different levels within the olfactory bulb and ...

Mitral valve replacement in sickle cell disease [PDF]
AbstractCardiac dysfunction, including mitral valve regurgitation and congestive heart failure, can occur in patients with sickle cell disease. However, major surgery poses a greater risk in this population. This paper reports on the management of a patient with sickle cell disease who underwent successful replacement of the mitral valve.

A study of the morphogenesis & mitral cell population of human fetal olfactory bulbs
Background and Aims: Human fetal olfactory bulbs have a six layered laminar architecture where mitral cells are the largest neurons. Volume of the bulbs is considered as an indicator of olfactory function.
