Odor identity coding by distributed ensembles of neurons in the mouse olfactory cortex [PDF]
eLife, 2017 Olfactory perception and behaviors critically depend on the ability to identify an odor across a wide range of concentrations. Here, we use calcium imaging to determine how odor identity is encoded in olfactory cortex.

Post-traumatic olfactory loss and brain response beyond olfactory cortex [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Olfactory impairment after a traumatic impact to the head is associated with changes in olfactory cortex, including decreased gray matter density and decreased BOLD response to odors. Much less is known about the role of other cortical areas in olfactory

Complementary codes for odor identity and intensity in olfactory cortex. [PDF]
Elife, 2017 The ability to represent both stimulus identity and intensity is fundamental for perception. Using large-scale population recordings in awake mice, we find distinct coding strategies facilitate non-interfering representations of odor identity and ...

Pyramidal Cells in Olfactory Cortex. [PDF]
Chem Senses, 2021 The neocortex and olfactory cortices share many features including their laminar organization, developmental sequences, and cell types. Previous work indicates that neocortical pyramidal cells exhibit a gradient of dendritic size: cells involved in the ...

Cerebral Cortex Expression of Gli3 Is Required for Normal Development of the Lateral Olfactory Tract. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Formation of the lateral olfactory tract (LOT) and innervation of the piriform cortex represent fundamental steps to allow the transmission of olfactory information to the cerebral cortex.

Sex differences in olfactory cortex neuronal loss in aging [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023 IntroductionAging plays a major role in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, and impacts neuronal loss. Olfactory dysfunction can be an early alteration heralding the presence of a neurodegenerative disorder in aging.

Interoceptive accuracy and its impact on neuronal responses to olfactory stimulation in the insular cortex [PDF]
Human Brain Mapping, 2020 The insular cortex plays a key role in the integration of multimodal information and in interoceptive and exteroceptive processing. For instance, neurons in the central dorsal insula that are active during interoceptive tasks, also show an adaptation to ...

Impaired Odor Perception in Autism Spectrum Disorder Is Associated with Decreased Activity in Olfactory Cortex [PDF]
Chemical Sensors, 2018 Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are characterized by atypical sensory functioning in the visual, tactile, and auditory systems. Although less explored, olfactory changes have been reported in ASD patients.
