Effects of diazinon on olfactory epithelium and genes related to olfactory signal transduction in Caspian roach, Rutilus caspicus [PDF]

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2021
Olfaction in fishes is biologically-essential chemoreceptors. It provokes important behaviors for the survival of fish such as feeding, reproduction, avoiding predator and intraspecific communication.

Identification of novel post-transcriptional features in olfactory receptor family mRNAs. [PDF]

, 2015
Olfactory receptor (Olfr) genes comprise the largest gene family in mice. Despite their importance in olfaction, how most Olfr mRNAs are regulated remains unexplored.

Homozygous deletion of six olfactory receptor genes in a subset of individuals with Beta-thalassemia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Progress in the functional studies of human olfactory receptors has been largely hampered by the lack of a reliable experimental model system. Although transgenic approaches in mice could characterize the function of individual olfactory receptors, the ...

Essential role for PDGF signaling in ophthalmic trigeminal placode induction [PDF]

, 2008
Much of the peripheral nervous system of the head is derived from ectodermal thickenings, called placodes, that delaminate or invaginate to form cranial ganglia and sense organs.

Olfactory Receptor Gene Polymorphisms and Nonallergic Vasomotor Rhinitis [PDF]

Journal of Asthma, 2008
We sought a genotype-phenotype association: between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in olfactory receptor (OR) genes from the two largest OR gene clusters and odor-triggered nonallergic vasomotor rhinitis (nVMR). In the initial pedigree screen, using transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) analysis, six SNPs showed "significant" p-values between ...

A common genetic target for environmental and heritable influences on aggressiveness in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2008
Environmental and genetic factors can modulate aggressiveness, but the biological mechanisms underlying their influence are largely unknown. Social experience with conspecifics suppresses aggressiveness in both vertebrate and invertebrate species ...

Integrated olfactory receptor and microarray gene expression databases [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2007
Gene expression patterns of olfactory receptors (ORs) are an important component of the signal encoding mechanism in the olfactory system since they determine the interactions between odorant ligands and sensory neurons. We have developed the Olfactory Receptor Microarray Database (ORMD) to house OR gene expression data.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Olfactory System Expression Characteristics of Aquatic Snakes

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Animal olfactory systems evolved with changes in habitat to detect odor cues from the environment. The aquatic environment, as a unique habitat, poses a formidable challenge for olfactory perception in animals, since the higher density and viscosity of ...

Antennal transcriptome and proteome analysis of olfactory genes and tissue expression profiling of odorant binding proteins in wohlfahrtia magnifica [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi
Wohlfahrtia magnifica is a species of fly that parasitizes Bactrian camels. The adult flies lay their larvae near the vulva of the camels, and these larvae develop and cause damage to the vaginal tissues, resulting in vaginal myiasis.

The giant pouched rat (Cricetomys ansorgei) olfactory receptor repertoire.

PLoS ONE, 2020
For rodents, olfaction is essential for locating food, recognizing mates and competitors, avoiding predators, and navigating their environment. It is thought that rodents may have expanded olfactory receptor repertoires in order to specialize in ...
