Behavioral evidence of the functional interaction between the main and accessory olfactory system suggests a large olfactory system with a high plastic capability [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2023 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.

Spatiotemporal regulation by downstream genes of Prok2 in the olfactory system: from development to function [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyIntroductionOlfaction is important for the quality of life; however, in Kallmann syndrome (KS), defective development results in olfactory dysfunction.

Characterization of an olfactory system dysfunction model: a vanadium dose-effect study via nose-to-brain delivery in rats [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroanatomyIntroductionThe olfactory system acts as an interface between the environment and the brain. Its direct neural connection makes it a target for xenobiotics and a suitable model for studying olfactory dysfunction and related neurotoxic effects. This study
