Activation of Group II Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors Suppresses Excitability of Mouse Main Olfactory Bulb External Tufted and Mitral Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are abundantly expressed in the rodent main olfactory bulb. The function of Group I mGluRs has been investigated in a number of studies, while the actions of Group II mGluRs, which include the mGluR2 and mGluR3 ...

Biopsy of the olfactory epithelium from the superior nasal septum: is it possible to obtain neurons without damaging olfaction?

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022
Introduction: Olfactory epithelium biopsy has been useful for studying diverse otorhinolaryngological and neurological diseases, including the potential to better understand the pathophysiology behind COVID-19 olfactory manifestations.

Study of regeneration in the garfish olfactory nerve. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 1980
Previous studies of the olfactory nerve, mainly in higher vertebrates, have indicated that axonal injury causes total degeneration of the mature neurons, followed by replacement of new neuronal cells arising from undifferentiated mucosal cells. A similar regeneration process was confirmed in the garfish olfactory system.

Wiring olfaction: the cellular and molecular mechanisms that guide the development of synaptic connections from the nose to the cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2009
Within the central nervous system, the olfactory system fascinates by its developmental and physiological particularities, and is one of the most studied models to understand the mechanisms underlying the guidance of growing axons to their appropriate ...

Structural olfactory nerve changes in patients suffering from idiopathic intracranial hypertension. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Complications of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) are usually caused by elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). In a similar way as in the optic nerve, elevated ICP could also compromise the olfactory nerve system.

Functional Reintegration of Sensory Neurons and Transitional Dendritic Reduction of Mitral/Tufted Cells during Injury-Induced Recovery of the Larval Xenopus Olfactory Circuit

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Understanding the mechanisms involved in maintaining lifelong neurogenesis has a clear biological and clinical interest. In the present study, we performed olfactory nerve transection on larval Xenopus to induce severe damage to the olfactory circuitry ...

SARS‐CoV‐2 Is Linked to Brain Volume Loss in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The impact of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection on brain and spinal cord pathology in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) remains unclear. We aimed to describe changes in brain lesion activity and brain and spinal cord volumes following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Olfactory nerve--a novel invasion route of Neisseria meningitidis to reach the meninges. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Neisseria meningitidis is a human-specific pathogen with capacity to cause septic shock and meningitis. It has been hypothesized that invasion of the central nervous system (CNS) is a complication of a bacteremic condition.
