Single-cell transcriptomes of developing and adult olfactory receptor neurons in Drosophila
Recognition of environmental cues is essential for the survival of all organisms. Precise transcriptional changes occur to enable the generation and function of the neural circuits underlying sensory perception.

Pathogenesis of Olfactory Disorders in COVID-19
Since the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, olfactory disorders have been reported as a frequent symptom of COVID-19; however, its pathogenesis is still debated.

Olfactory receptor and circuit evolution promote host specialisation
The evolution of animal behaviour is poorly understood 1 , 2 . Despite numerous correlations between interspecific divergence in behaviour and nervous system structure and function, demonstrations of the genetic basis of these behavioural differences ...

Tph2-/- female mice restore socio-sexual recognition through upregulating ERα and OTR genes in the amygdala. [PDF]
The central 5-hydroxytryptamine system impairs sociosexual behaviors and olfaction preferences in sexually naive mice. However, it remains unknown whether reproductive experiences impart an effect on the sexual olfactory preferences of female mice ...

Organization and distribution of glomeruli in the bowhead whale olfactory bulb [PDF]
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.

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

Synaptophysin and synaptoporin expression in the developing rat olfactory system [PDF]
The expressions of two closely related synaptic vesicle antigens synaptophysin and synaptoporin were examined in the olfactory system of the adult rat and during pre- and postnatal development.

Designer lipid-like peptides [PDF]
A crucial bottleneck in membrane protein studies, particularly G-protein coupled receptors, is the notorious difficulty of finding an optimal detergent that can solubilize them and maintain their stability and function. Here we report rapid production of

Drosophila olfactory receptors as classifiers for volatiles from disparate real world applications [PDF]
Olfactory receptors evolved to provide animals with ecologically and behaviourally relevant information. The resulting extreme sensitivity and discrimination has proven useful to humans, who have therefore co-opted some animals' sense of smell.
