Single-cell transcriptomes of developing and adult olfactory receptor neurons in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2021
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.

Olfactory sensitivity of the marine flatfish Solea senegalensis to conspecific body fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chemical communication is better understood in freshwater fish than marine fish. The Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) is a marine flatfish wherein one of the problems in aquaculture is the poor reproductive performance of hatchery-bred males.

3D standard brain of the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum: a tool to study metamorphic development and adult plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2010
The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum is emerging as a further standard insect model beside Drosophila. Its genome is fully sequenced and it is susceptible for genetic manipulations including RNA-interference.

Purinergic Signaling in the Vertebrate Olfactory System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) is an ubiquitous co-transmitter in the vertebrate brain. ATP itself, as well as its breakdown products ADP and adenosine are involved in synaptic transmission and plasticity, neuron-glia communication and neural ...

The Olfactory Bulb in Companion Animals—Anatomy, Physiology, and Clinical Importance

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
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.

Regulatory mechanisms in olfactory system assembly and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The mammalian sense of smell relies on the detection of odorants by a large family of G protein coupled receptors, encoded by ~1300 different genes in mice (Buck and Axel, 1991; Zhang et al., 2007).

Environmental Engineering Applications of Electronic Nose Systems Based on MOX Gas Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2023
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.

Short-term memory trace mediated by termination kinetics of olfactory receptor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Odorants activate receptors in the peripheral olfactory neurons, which sends information to higher brain centers where behavioral valence is determined.

A dopamine-gated learning circuit underpins reproductive state-dependent odor preference in Drosophila females

open access: yeseLife, 2022
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 ...

Rapid evolution of chemosensory receptor genes in a pair of sibling species of orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundInsects rely more on chemical signals (semiochemicals) than on any other sensory modality to find, identify, and choose mates. In most insects, pheromone production is typically regulated through biosynthetic pathways, whereas pheromone sensory
