Reverse chemical ecology approach for the identification of an oviposition attractant for Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pheromones and other semiochemicals play a crucial role in today's integrated pest and vector management strategies. These semiochemicals are typically discovered by bioassay-guided approaches.

Localized Expression of Olfactory Receptor Genes in the Olfactory Organ of Common Minke Whales

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Baleen whales (Mysticeti) possess the necessary anatomical structures and genetic elements for olfaction. Nevertheless, the olfactory receptor gene (OR) repertoire has undergone substantial degeneration in the cetacean lineage following the divergence of the Artiodactyla and Cetacea.

Targeting the ARRDC3–DRP1 Axis via hUMSC‐Derived Exosomal CRYAB for Neuroprotection in Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Intranasally administered hUMSC‐derived exosomes modulate the CRYAB–ARRDC3–Drp1 axis, alleviating mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis, enhancing neuronal survival, reducing oxidative stress, and promoting functional recovery in ischemia‐reperfusion injury, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke.

MOLECULAR BASIS OF PERIPHERAL OLFACTORY PLASTICITY IN Rhodnius prolixus, A CHAGAS DISEASE VECTOR

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
Olfaction is fundamental for most animals and critical for different aspects of triatomine biology, including host-seeking, reproduction, avoidance of predators, and aggregation in shelters.

The Olfactory Nervous System Of Terrestrial And Aquatic Vertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Animals in their natural milieu are surrounded by odors. These odors are rich source of information, and are perceived by sophisticated olfactory systems, that have evolved over time.

Prokineticin 2 Is a Target Gene of Proneural Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Factors for Olfactory Bulb Neurogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Prokineticin 2, a cysteine-rich secreted protein, regulates diverse biological functions including the neurogenesis of olfactory bulb. Here we show that the PK2 gene is a functional target gene of proneural basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) factors ...

Olfactory receptor genes cooperate with protocadherin genes in human extreme obesity [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Nutrition, 2015
Worldwide, the incidence of obesity has increased dramatically over the past decades. More knowledge about the complex etiology of obesity is needed in order to find additional approaches for treatment and prevention. Investigating the exome sequencing data of 30 extremely obese subjects (BMI 45-65 kg/m(2)) shows that predicted damaging missense ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Apoptotic Micro‐Vesicles Repaired Sciatic Nerve Defect by Regulating Early Inflammatory Microenvironment and Promoting Angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
HUCMSC‐Apo‐mvs enhance peripheral nerve repair by modulating the inflammatory microenvironment (IME), primarily through coordinated actions on three functional cells. They recruit macrophages and promote their polarization from pro‐inflammatory M1 to anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotypes, increasing secretion of IL‐10 and VEGF.

Complex evolutionary dynamics of massively expanded chemosensory receptor families in an extreme generalist chelicerate herbivore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
While mechanisms to detoxify plant produced, anti-herbivore compounds have been associated with plant host use by herbivores, less is known about the role of chemosensory perception in their life histories.

Mouse olfactory sensory neurons express 10,000 genes

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, 2007
AbstractOlfactory epithelial cells from olfactory marker protein‐green fluorescent protein (OMP‐GFP) mice were separated by fluorescence‐activated cell sorting into a GFP+sample enriched in mature olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) and a GFP–sample enriched in all other cells.
