The structural basis of odorant recognition in insect olfactory receptors

open access: yesNature, 2021
Olfactory systems must detect and discriminate amongst an enormous variety of odorants1. To contend with this challenge, diverse species have converged on a common strategy in which odorant identity is encoded through the combinatorial activation of ...

Olfactory Function and Olfactory Disorders.

open access: yesLaryngo- rhino- otologie, 2023
The sense of smell is important. This became especially clear to patients with infection-related olfactory loss during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We react, for example, to the body odors of other humans. The sense of smell warns us of danger, and it allows us to perceive flavors when eating and drinking. In essence, this means quality of life. Therefore,

Olfactory Metacognition [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Senses, 2003
The current paper focuses on the subjective knowledge people have about their ability to name odors. Previous investigations of such metacognitive aspects of olfactory cognition are very scarce and have yielded results that need further scrutiny. In two experiments, we investigated three metamemory judgments about odor identity.

Olfactory dysfunction in COVID-19: new insights into the underlying mechanisms

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2022
The mechanisms of olfactory dysfunction in COVID-19 are still unclear. In this review, we examine potential mechanisms that may explain why the sense of smell is lost or altered.

Post-viral effects of COVID-19 in the olfactory system and their implications

open access: yesLancet Neurology, 2021
Background The mechanisms by which any upper respiratory virus, including SARS-CoV-2, impairs chemosensory function are not known. COVID-19 is frequently associated with olfactory dysfunction after viral infection, which provides a research opportunity ...
