Molecules, 2013 The influence of human salivary enzymes on palm wines’ odorant concentrations were investigated by the application of aroma extracts dilution analysis (AEDA) and by the calculation of odour activity values (OAVs), respectively.

Frontiers in Neural CircuitsAs an evolutionarily ancient sense, olfaction is key to learning where to find food, shelter, mates, and important landmarks in an animal’s environment. Brain circuitry linking odor and navigation appears to be a well conserved multi-region system among mammals; the anterior olfactory nucleus, piriform cortex, entorhinal cortex, and hippocampus each ...

Adaptation of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii to a specialized nutritional niche
Insect Science, EarlyView.Unlike most Drosophila larvae that feed on spoiled food, Drosophila suzukii larvae thrive on ripening fruits and consequently face a low‐protein, high‐carbohydrate nutritional challenge. Comparisons of growth among D. suzukii, D. biarmipes, and D. melanogaster larvae across diets with varying protein‐to‐carbohydrate ratios demonstrate that D.

Encoding of Odorants by Olfactory Sensory Neurons [PDF]
, 2012 The olfactory system relies on a combinatorial code where a given odorant receptor (OR) detects multiple odorants, and a given odorant is detected by multiple ORs (Malnic, Hirono et al. 1999).

Volatile Compounds in Feathers of the Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao) Reflect Sex and Pair‐Bond Status
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Scarlet macaws exhibit sex‐ and pair‐related differences in plumage volatile composition, with males showing greater chemical richness. Partnered individuals differ in specific compound classes, whereas no clear association with immune function was detected. These results support a potential role for olfactory cues in sexual and social communication in

The ventral premammillary nucleus at the interface of environmental cues and social behaviors
Frontiers in NeuroscienceThe survival of species heavily depends on social behaviors, which in turn rely on the ability to recognize conspecifics within an appropriate environmental context. These behaviors are regulated by the hypothalamus, which processes signals from both the

Physico-chemical representation of odorants used in the study.
, 2013 A set of 38 physico-chemical descriptors was generated using CHEMMINE Tools. Odorants are color coded according to their main chemical functional groups.

Retronasal Olfactory Function After Olfactory Training: A Prospective Single‐Arm Study
Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Retronasal olfaction is essential for aroma perception. Its impairment in individuals with olfactory dysfunction (OD) negatively affects dietary behaviour and quality of life. Regular exposure to odours in a form of olfactory training (OT) is used to rehabilitate the sense of smell.

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Olfactory tuft cells communicate with other mucosal cells in maintaining olfactory epithelial immunity and sensory function. Disruption of tuft cell signalling pathways causes a skewed immune response, leading to heightened inflammation and increased activation of the quiescent stem cells, which are further exacerbated by viral infection.
