The Odorant Receptor-Dependent Role of Olfactory Marker Protein in Olfactory Receptor Neurons [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2016 Olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) in the nasal cavity detect and transduce odorants into action potentials to be conveyed to the olfactory bulb. Odorants are delivered to ORNs via the inhaled air at breathing frequencies that can vary from 2 to 10 Hz in ...

Ionic currents of cultured olfactory receptor neurons from antennae of male Manduca sexta [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience, 1991 Whole-cell and single-channel voltage-clamp techniques were used to identify and characterize the ionic currents of insect olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) in vitro.

Cooperative interactions enable singular olfactory receptor expression in mouse olfactory neurons
eLife, 2017 The monogenic and monoallelic expression of only one out of > 1000 olfactory receptor (ORs) genes requires the formation of large heterochromatic chromatin domains that sequester the OR gene clusters.

Identification of a cell surface glycoprotein family of olfactory receptor neurons with a monoclonal antibody [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience, 1985 A monoclonal antibody (Mab) has been developed which recognizes a family of cell surface glycoproteins found in high levels of rat olfactory receptor neurons.

Differential modulation of feedforward inhibition reflects topographic organization in the olfactory system [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe nervous system flexibly processes information under different conditions. To do this, neural networks frequently rely on uniform expression of modulatory receptors by distinct classes of neurons to fine tune the computations supported by each ...

Olfactory Receptor Neuron Dysfunction in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Neuropsychopharmacology, 2008 Olfactory impairments are a common feature of schizophrenia. Impairments in odor detection and odor identification are present early in the course of illness and among those at risk for the disorder. These behavioral impairments have been linked to both physiological and anatomical abnormalities in the neural substrates subserving olfaction, including ...

Predicting olfactory receptor neuron responses from odorant structure [PDF]
Chemistry Central Journal, 2007 Background Olfactory receptors work at the interface between the chemical world of volatile molecules and the perception of scent in the brain. Their main purpose is to translate chemical space into information that can be processed by neural circuits ...
