Odorant receptors in cancer. [PDF]
BMB Rep, 2022 Odorant receptors (ORs), the largest subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors, detect odorants in the nose. In addition, ORs were recently shown to be expressed in many nonolfactory tissues and cells, indicating that these receptors have physiological and pathophysiological roles beyond olfaction.

Research Progress of Insect Odorant Receptors
Guangdong nongye kexue, 2022 For insects, olfaction is an important signal input source for their behavioral perception. There are many kinds of proteins involved in the process of odor recognition, and they play a leading role in regulating feeding, swarming, mating, oviposition ...

Onset of Odorant Receptors [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009 Odorant receptors are thought to be critical determinants of olfactory sensory neuron axon targeting and organization. Nonetheless, a systematic characterization of the onset of odorant receptor expression has not yet been done in the main olfactory epithelium.

The whole body transcriptome of Coleophora obducta reveals important olfactory proteins [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Background The tiny casebearer moth Coleophora obducta, an important defoliator of Larix spp., is a major threat to ecological security in north China. Studies have shown that C. obducta is strongly specific to host plants; it is unable complete its life

Odorant Receptor Inhibition Is Fundamental to Odor Encoding [PDF]
Current Biology, 2019 SUMMARY Most natural odors are complex mixtures of many volatile components, competing to bind odorant receptors (ORs) expressed in olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) of the nose. To date surprisingly little is known about how OR antagonism shapes neuronal representations in the periphery of the olfactory system.

Involvement of the olfactory system in the induction of anti-fatigue effects by odorants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Some components of the neural circuits underlying innate odor-evoked responses have recently been elucidated. Odor information detected by the olfactory receptors is transmitted from the olfactory bulb to the cortical amygdala, where physiological and ...

PLoS ONE, 2022 Olfaction, one of the most important sensory systems governing insect behavior, is a possible target for pest management. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the antennal transcriptome of the cowpea beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera ...

Advantage of the Highly Restricted Odorant Receptor Expression Pattern in Chemosensory Neurons of Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 A fundamental molecular feature of olfactory systems is that individual neurons express only one receptor from a large odorant receptor gene family. While numerous theories have been proposed, the functional significance and evolutionary advantage of ...
