Odorant receptor co-receptors affect expression of tuning receptors in Drosophila

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Insects detect odorants using two large families of heteromeric receptors, the Odorant Receptors (ORs) and Ionotropic Receptors (IRs). Most OR and IR genes encode odorant-binding “tuning” subunits, whereas four (Orco, Ir8a, Ir25a, and Ir76b) encode co ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Apoptotic Micro‐Vesicles Repaired Sciatic Nerve Defect by Regulating Early Inflammatory Microenvironment and Promoting Angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
HUCMSC‐Apo‐mvs enhance peripheral nerve repair by modulating the inflammatory microenvironment (IME), primarily through coordinated actions on three functional cells. They recruit macrophages and promote their polarization from pro‐inflammatory M1 to anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotypes, increasing secretion of IL‐10 and VEGF.

Dysregulation of Olfactory Receptor Neuron Lineage in Schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of General Psychiatry, 2001
Growing evidence implicates abnormal neurodevelopment in schizophrenia. While neuron birth and differentiation is largely completed by the end of gestation, the olfactory epithelium (OE) is a unique part of the central nervous system that undergoes regeneration throughout life, thus offering an opportunity to investigate cellular and molecular events ...

Prion shedding from olfactory neurons into nasal secretions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
This study investigated the role of prion infection of the olfactory mucosa in the shedding of prion infectivity into nasal secretions. Prion infection with the HY strain of the transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME) agent resulted in a prominent ...

The Olfactory Nervous System Of Terrestrial And Aquatic Vertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Animals in their natural milieu are surrounded by odors. These odors are rich source of information, and are perceived by sophisticated olfactory systems, that have evolved over time.

Sequential Sparsening by Successive Adaptation in Neural Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the principal cells of the insect mushroom body, the Kenyon cells (KC), olfactory information is represented by a spatially and temporally sparse code.

Origin of basal activity in mammalian olfactory receptor neurons

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 2010
Mammalian odorant receptors form a large, diverse group of G protein–coupled receptors that determine the sensitivity and response profile of olfactory receptor neurons.

Olfactory sensory neurons transiently express multiple olfactory receptors during development

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2015
In mammals, each olfactory sensory neuron randomly expresses one, and only one, olfactory receptor (OR)--a phenomenon called the "one-neuron-one-receptor" rule. Although extensively studied, this rule was never proven for all ~1,000 OR genes in one cell at once, and little is known about its dynamics.
