The mouse olfactory receptor gene family [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 In mammals, odor detection in the nose is mediated by a diverse family of olfactory receptors (ORs), which are used combinatorially to detect different odorants and encode their identities. The OR family can be divided into subfamilies whose members are highly related and are likely to recognize structurally related odorants.

Organization and distribution of glomeruli in the bowhead whale olfactory bulb [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Although modern baleen whales (Mysticeti) retain a functional olfactory system that includes olfactory bulbs, cranial nerve I and olfactory receptor genes, their olfactory capabilities have been reduced to a great degree.

Identification of male- and female-specific olfaction genes in antennae of the oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) [PDF]
, 2016 The oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) is a species of tephritid fruit fly, endemic to Southeast Asia but also introduced to many regions of the US, and it is one of the major pest species with a broad host range of cultivated and wild fruits ...

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022 Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) from the olfactory bulb (OB) and the olfactory mucosa (OM) have the capacity to repair nerve injury. However, the difference in the therapeutic effect between OB-derived OECs and OM-derived OECs remains unclear. In this study, we extracted OECs from OB and OM and compared the gene and protein expression profiles of ...

Transcriptome sequencing of olfactory-related genes in olfactory transduction of large yellow croaker (Larimichthy crocea) in response to bile salts [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Fish produce and release bile salts as chemical signalling substances that act as sensitive olfactory stimuli. To investigate how bile salts affect olfactory signal transduction in large yellow croaker (Larimichthy crocea), deep sequencing of olfactory ...

Differential Gene Expression in Liver, Gill, and Olfactory Rosettes of Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) After Acclimation to Salinity. [PDF]
, 2015 Most Pacific salmonids undergo smoltification and transition from freshwater to saltwater, making various adjustments in metabolism, catabolism, osmotic, and ion regulation. The molecular mechanisms underlying this transition are largely unknown.

YAC transgene-mediated olfactory receptor gene choice [PDF]
Developmental Dynamics, 2000 In the mouse, individual olfactory neurons express one of a thousand distinct olfactory receptor genes. Furthermore, only one allele of the expressed gene is transcribed. This phenomenon, random allelic inactivation, along with the observation that the olfactory receptor genes reside in large chromosomal arrays, suggests a role for long-range gene ...

Downregulation of Fzd6 and Cthrc1 and upregulation of olfactory receptors and protocadherins by dietary beta-carotene in lungs of Bcmo1-/- mice. [PDF]
, 2010 An ongoing controversy exists on beneficial versus harmful effects of high beta-carotene (BC) intake, especially for the lung. To elucidate potential mechanisms, we studied effects of BC on lung gene expression.
