Nasal Placode Development, GnRH Neuronal Migration and Kallmann Syndrome
The development of Gonadotropin releasing hormone-1 (GnRH) neurons is important for a functional reproduction system in vertebrates. Disruption of GnRH results in hypogonadism and if accompanied by anosmia is termed Kallmann Syndrome (KS).

Competence, specification and commitment to an olfactory placode fate [PDF]
The nasal placode shares a common origin with other sensory placodes within a pre-placodal domain at the cranial neural plate border. However, little is known about early events in nasal placode development as it segregates from prospective lens, neural ...

Glomerular Organization of the Antennal Lobes of the Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella L.
The antennal lobe of the moth brain is the primary olfactory center processing information concerning pheromones and plant odors. Plutella xylostella is a major worldwide pest of cruciferous vegetables and its behavior is highly dependent on their ...

The Neurotransmitter Receptor Architecture of the Mouse Olfactory System
The uptake, transmission and processing of sensory olfactory information is modulated by inhibitory and excitatory receptors in the olfactory system. Previous studies have focused on the function of individual receptors in distinct brain areas, but the ...

The role of two anatomically separate olfactory bulbs in shark food odor tracking [PDF]
Most sharks have well-developed olfactory systems and depend to a large degree on odor information to locate food, home and navigate, and possibly detect predators and mates.

Hypothalamus-Olfactory System Crosstalk: Orexin as a Connecting Track in Mice.
It is well known that olfaction influences food intake, and almost vice versa, the nutritional status of individuals modulates olfactory sensitivity. However, the neuronal correlate of this relationship and the connections between the olfactory bulb and ...

We perceive smells as perduring complex entities within a distal array that might be conceived of as smellscapes. However, the philosophical orthodoxy of Odor Theories has been to deny that smells are perceived as having a distal location.
