Odor Coding in the Mammalian Olfactory Epithelium [PDF]
Noses are extremely sophisticated chemical detectors allowing animals to use scents to interpret and navigate their environments. Odor detection starts with the activation of odorant receptors (ORs), expressed in mature olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) populating the olfactory mucosa. Different odorants, or different concentrations of the same odorant,

Structural Rearrangement of the Olfactory Epithelium in Male Baikal Yellowfin Sculpins Across the Reproductive Period [PDF]
The morphological peculiarities of receptor neurons and support cells in the olfactory epithelium of male yellowfin sculpin (Cottocomephorus grewingkii; Dybowski, 1874) were studied during the pre-spawning, spawning (when males do not feed and have a ...

Shedding light on human olfaction: Electrophysiological recordings from sensory neurons in acute slices of olfactory epithelium [PDF]
Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic brought attention to our limited understanding of human olfactory physiology. While the cellular composition of the human olfactory epithelium is similar to that of other vertebrates, its functional properties are largely ...

Deconstructing Olfactory Epithelium Developmental Pathways in Olfactory Neuroblastoma. [PDF]
Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare tumor arising from the olfactory cleft region of the nasal cavity. Because of the low incidence of this tumor, as well as an absence of established cell lines and murine models, understanding the mechanisms driving olfactory neuroblastoma pathobiology has been challenging.

Olfactory adaptation: recordings from the human olfactory epithelium. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Olfactory adaptation is a peripheral (at the epithelium level) or a central (at the brain level) mechanism resulting from repeated or prolonged odorous exposure that can induce a perceptual decrease. The aim of this study was to assess whether a peripheral adaptation occurs when an odor is repeated ten ...

Olfactory epithelium changes in germfree mice [PDF]
AbstractIntestinal epithelium development is dramatically impaired in germfree rodents, but the consequences of the absence of microbiota have been overlooked in other epithelia. In the present study, we present the first description of the bacterial communities associated with the olfactory epithelium and explored differences in olfactory epithelium ...

Olfactory Regeneration with Nasally Administered Murine Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Olfactory Epithelium Damaged Mice [PDF]
In this study, we aimed to determine whether nasally administered murine adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) could support olfactory regeneration in vivo.

Cannabinoid action in the olfactory epithelium [PDF]
The perception of odors is influenced by a variety of neuromodulators, and there is growing evidence that modulation already takes place in the olfactory epithelium. Here we report on cannabinergic actions in the olfactory epithelium of Xenopus laevis tadpoles.
