GPRC5C regulates the composition of cilia in the olfactory system

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Olfactory sensory neurons detect odourants via multiple long cilia that protrude from their dendritic endings. The G protein-coupled receptor GPRC5C was identified as part of the olfactory ciliary membrane proteome, but its function and ...

A novel octopamine receptor with preferential expression in Drosophila mushroom bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Octopamine is a neuromodulator that mediates diverse physiological processes in invertebrates. In some insects, such as honeybees and fruit flies, octopamine has been shown to be a major stimulator of adenylyl cyclase and to function in associative ...

Classifying continuous, real-time e-nose sensor data using a bio-inspired spiking network modelled on the insect olfactory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In many application domains, conventional e-noses are frequently outperformed in both speed and accuracy by their biological counterparts. Exploring potential bio-inspired improvements, we note a number of neuronal network models have demonstrated some ...

Temporally Diverse Firing Patterns in Olfactory Receptor Neurons Underlie Spatiotemporal Neural Codes for Odors

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2010
Odorants are represented as spatiotemporal patterns of spikes in neurons of the antennal lobe (AL; insects) and olfactory bulb (OB; vertebrates). These response patterns have been thought to arise primarily from interactions within the AL/OB, an idea ...

Recent Progress on Flexible Multimodal Sensors: Decoupling Strategies, Fabrication and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this review, we establish a tripartite decoupling framework for flexible multimodal sensors, which elucidates the underlying principles of signal crosstalk and their solutions through material design, structural engineering, and AI algorithms. We also demonstrate its potential applications across environmental monitoring, health monitoring, human ...

Perception space - The final frontier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mapping the complex sensory behavior of animals, such as smell in bees, to relevant neural activity provides clues into how animals perceive and respond to the world through their ...

Smart REASSURED Sensors via Machine‐Augmented Printable On‐Paper Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights the emerging role of pattern‐recognition, printable on‐paper sensor arrays for intelligent PoC diagnostics. It discusses how paper's inherent limitations can be overcome through surface modification and scalable printing, and how machine‐learning analysis of cross‐reactive arrays enables multiplexed, low‐cost, and REASSURED ...

Trpc2-Expressing Sensory Neurons in the Main Olfactory Epithelium of the Mouse

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
The mouse olfactory system contains two distinct chemosensory epithelia, the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) and the vomeronasal epithelium (VNE). Their sensory neurons express odorant receptor genes and vomeronasal receptor genes, respectively, and ...

Alzheimer’s Disease: What Can We Learn From the Peripheral Olfactory System?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The sense of smell has been shown to deteriorate in patients with some neurodegenerative disorders. In Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), decreased ability to smell is associated with early disease stages.

Most primary olfactory neurons have individually neutral effects on behavior

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Animals use olfactory receptors to navigate mates, food, and danger. However, for complex olfactory systems, it is unknown what proportion of primary olfactory sensory neurons can individually drive avoidance or attraction.
