Massive normalization of olfactory bulb output in mice with a 'monoclonal nose' [PDF]
Perturbations in neural circuits can provide mechanistic understanding of the neural correlates of behavior. In M71 transgenic mice with a “monoclonal nose”, glomerular input patterns in the olfactory bulb are massively perturbed and olfactory behaviors ...

Neuroanatomical Reflections of Childhood Obesity: Volumetric Analysis of the Pituitary Gland and Olfactory Bulb [PDF]
Introduction: Obesity is a rapidly increasing condition that leads to serious health issues. The sense of smell, one of the oldest senses related to energy metabolism, has been increasingly studied in relation to obesity.

High-fat diet triggers transcriptomic changes in the olfactory bulb [PDF]
Metabolic imbalance contributes to cognitive impairment, anxiety, depressive behavior, and impaired olfactory perception. Recent studies have focused on olfactory dysfunction in patients with obesity and diabetes accompanied by cognitive dysfunction ...

The olfactory bulb as the entry site for prion-like propagation in neurodegenerative diseases
Olfactory deficits are present in numerous neurodegenerative disorders and are accompanied by pathology in related brain regions. In several of these disorders, olfactory disturbances appear early and are considered as prodromal symptoms of the disease ...

The source of spontaneous activity in the main olfactory bulb of the rat. [PDF]
In vivo, most neurons in the main olfactory bulb exhibit robust spontaneous activity. This paper tests the hypothesis that spontaneous activity in olfactory receptor neurons drives much of the spontaneous activity in mitral and tufted cells via ...

The effect of type 2 diabetes on the olfactory bulb structure of Wistar rats [PDF]
Olfaction, the sense of smell, plays an important role in the individual's safety, nutrition, social interactions, sexual function, and quality of life. Diabetes mellitus, which affects more than 400 million people worldwide, is associated with olfactory

Neural connectivity predicts spreading of alpha-synuclein pathology in fibril-injected mouse models: Involvement of retrograde and anterograde axonal propagation. [PDF]
In Parkinson's disease, some of the first alpha-synuclein aggregates appear in the olfactory system and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve before spreading to connected brain regions.

Assessment of olfactory nerve by SPECT-MRI image with nasal thallium-201 administration in patients with olfactory impairments in comparison to healthy volunteers. [PDF]
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess whether migration of thallium-201 ((201)Tl) to the olfactory bulb were reduced in patients with olfactory impairments in comparison to healthy volunteers after nasal administration of (201)Tl.
