Chromogranin A in the olfactory system of the rat [PDF]
The olfactory bulb of the rat contains chromogranin A at a similar level as the adrenal gland or the hypophysis as revealed by immunoblots. Olfactory chromogranin A also displays the same size as chromogranin A of endocrine cells.

Behavioral evidence of the functional interaction between the main and accessory olfactory system suggests a large olfactory system with a high plastic capability [PDF]
Olfaction is fundamental in many species of mammals. In rodents, the integrity of this system is required for the expression of parental and sexual behavior, mate recognition, identification of predators, and finding food.

Glycobiology of the olfactory system [PDF]
The olfactory system is a highly plastic region of the nervous system. Continuous remodeling of neuronal circuits in the olfactory bulb takes place throughout life as a result of constant turnover of primary sensory olfactory neurons in the periphery ...

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.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of the development of mouse olfactory system from prenatal to postnatal period [PDF]
IntroductionThe olfactory epithelium (OE) and olfactory bulb (OB) are the major components of the olfactory system and play critical roles in olfactory perception.

The Role of the Olfactory System in Obesity and Metabolism in Humans: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Obesity, linked to chronic diseases, poses a global health challenge. While the role of the olfactory system in energy homeostasis is well-documented in rodents, its role in metabolism regulation and obesity in humans remains understudied.

Extreme Sensitivity in an Olfactory System [PDF]
We recorded olfactory-induced cardiac responses to evaluate olfactory response thresholds to behaviourally relevant odours in a moth. Specific antennal receptor neurons enable insects to detect biologically meaningful odours such as sex pheromones and host-plant volatiles.

The Bulb, the Brain and the Being: New Insights into Olfactory System Anatomy, Organization and Connectivity [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Olfaction is in many ways the least understood sensory modality. Its organization and connectivity are still under debate. The aim of this study was to investigate the anatomy of the olfactory system by using a cadaver fiber ...

Effects of prenatal alcohol exposure on the olfactory system development [PDF]
Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD), resulting from maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy, are a prominent non-genetic cause of physical disabilities and brain damage in children.

Relational representation in the olfactory system [PDF]
The perceptual quality of odors usually is robust to variability in concentration. However, maps of neural activation across the olfactory bulb glomerular layer are not stable in this respect; rather, glomerular odor representations both broaden and intensify as odorant concentrations are increased.
