The evolutionary origins of the vertebrate olfactory system [PDF]
Vertebrates develop an olfactory system that detects odorants and pheromones through their interaction with specialized cell surface receptors on olfactory sensory neurons.

The Olfactory Organ Is a Unique Site for Neutrophils in the Brain
In the vertebrate olfactory tract new neurons are continuously produced throughout life. It is widely believed that neurogenesis contributes to learning and memory and can be regulated by immune signaling molecules.

Olfactory System and Demyelination [PDF]
ABSTRACTWithin the central nervous system, the olfactory system represents one of the most exciting scenarios since it presents relevant examples of long‐life sustained neurogenesis and continuous axonal outgrowth from the olfactory epithelium with the subsequent plasticity phenomena in the olfactory bulb.

Plasticity of the Human Olfactory System: The Olfactory Bulb [PDF]
In the last years, an increasing interest has been paid to the olfactory system, particularly to its abilities of plasticity and its potential continuous neurogenesis throughout adult life. Although mechanisms underlying adult neurogenesis have been largely investigated in animals, to some degree they remain unclear in humans.

Motherhood induces a drastic, sometimes long-lasting, change in internal state and behavior in many female animals. How a change in reproductive state or the discrete event of mating modulates specific female behaviors is still incompletely understood ...

Single-cell transcriptomes of developing and adult olfactory receptor neurons in Drosophila
Recognition of environmental cues is essential for the survival of all organisms. Transcriptional changes occur to enable the generation and function of the neural circuits underlying sensory perception.

The Olfactory Bulb in Companion Animals—Anatomy, Physiology, and Clinical Importance
The Olfactory Bulb is a component of the Olfactory System, in which it plays an essential role as an interface between the peripheral components and the cerebral cortex responsible for olfactory interpretation and discrimination.

Environmental Engineering Applications of Electronic Nose Systems Based on MOX Gas Sensors
Nowadays, the electronic nose (e-nose) has gained a huge amount of attention due to its ability to detect and differentiate mixtures of various gases and odors using a limited number of sensors.
