Neural Dynamics of Olfactory Perception: Low- and High-Frequency Modulations of Local Field Potential Spectra in Mice Revealed by an Oddball Stimulus [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Recent brain connectome studies have evidenced distinct and overlapping brain regions involved in processing olfactory perception. However, neural correlates of hypo- or anosmia in olfactory disorder patients are poorly known.

Olfactory Co-Stimulation Influences Intranasal Somatosensory Perception [PDF]
Multisensory Research, 2019 ABSTRACTOlfactory sensitivity is influenced by intranasal trigeminal sensation. For instance, sniffing is central to how humans and animals perceive odorants. Here, we investigated the influence of olfactory co-stimulation on the perception of intranasal somatosensory stimulation.

Physicochemical features partially explain olfactory crossmodal correspondences
Scientific Reports, 2023 During the olfactory perception process, our olfactory receptors are thought to recognize specific chemical features. These features may contribute towards explaining our crossmodal perception. The physicochemical features of odors can be extracted using

Stimulus Driven Functional Transformations in the Early Olfactory System
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 Olfactory stimuli are encountered across a wide range of odor concentrations in natural environments. Defining the neural computations that support concentration invariant odor perception, odor discrimination, and odor-background segmentation across a ...

The Olfactory System: Basic Anatomy and Physiology for General Otorhinolaryngologists [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2023 Olfaction is one of the five basic human senses, and it is known to be one of the most primitive senses. The sense of olfaction may have been critical for human survival in prehistoric society, and although many believe its importance has diminished over

Nasal airflow engages central olfactory processing and shapes olfactory percepts [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2020 Binding of airborne odour molecules to olfactory receptors at the top of the nasal cavity gives rise to our rich olfactory experience. Whether airflow plays a role in human olfactory perception beyond the transportation of odorants is scantly known. Combining psychophysical measures with strict controls of nasal flow parameters, we demonstrate in four ...

Stimulation of electro-olfactogram responses in the main olfactory epithelia by airflow depends on the type 3 adenylyl cyclase [PDF]
, 2012 Cilia of olfactory sensory neurons are the primary sensory organelles for olfaction. The detection of odorants by the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) depends on coupling of odorant receptors to the type 3 adenylyl cyclase (AC3) in olfactory cilia.
