Ultramicroscopic organization of the exterior olfactory organ in Anguilla vulgaris in relation to its spawning migration

open access: yesOpen Veterinary Journal
Background: Catadromous fishes have well developed elongate olfactory organs with numerous lamellae and different types of receptor neurons related to their breeding migration.

Co-regulation of a large and rapidly evolving repertoire of odorant receptor genes

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2007
The olfactory system meets niche- and species-specific demands by an accelerated evolution of its odorant receptor repertoires. In this review, we describe evolutionary processes that have shaped olfactory and vomeronasal receptor gene families in ...

Olfactory function in the trace amine-associated receptor family (TAARs) evolved twice independently

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Olfactory receptor families have arisen independently several times during evolution. The origin of taar genes, one of the four major vertebrate olfactory receptor families, is disputed.

Olfaction in mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Female mosquitoes are vectors of diseases, affecting both livestock and humans. The host-seeking and identification behaviors of mosquitoes are mediated mainly by olfactory cues. The peripheral olfactory organs of mosquitoes which perceive olfactory cues

Olfactory receptor antagonism between odorants [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2003
The detection of thousands of volatile odorants is mediated by several hundreds of different G protein-coupled olfactory receptors (ORs). The main strategy in encoding odorant identities is a combinatorial receptor code scheme in that different odorants are recognized by different sets of ORs.

Olfactory ensheathing glia are required for embryonic olfactory axon targeting and the migration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons

open access: yesBiology Open, 2013
Summary Kallmann's syndrome is caused by the failure of olfactory axons and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons to enter the embryonic forebrain, resulting in anosmia and sterility.

Innate Immunity in the C. elegans Intestine Is Programmed by a Neuronal Regulator of AWC Olfactory Neuron Development

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Olfactory neurons allow animals to discriminate nutritious food sources from potential pathogens. From a forward genetic screen, we uncovered a surprising requirement for the olfactory neuron gene olrn-1 in the regulation of intestinal ...
