Whole-Brain Mapping of the Inputs and Outputs of the Medial Part of the Olfactory Tubercle. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Neural Circuits, 2017
The medial part of the olfactory tubercle (OT) is a brain structure located at the interface of the reward and olfactory system. It is closely related to pheromone-rewards, natural reinforcement, addiction and many other behaviors. However, the structure

The Neurotransmitter Receptor Architecture of the Mouse Olfactory System

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021
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 embryonic septum and ventral pallium, new sources of olfactory cortex cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The mammalian olfactory cortex is a complex structure located along the rostro-caudal extension of the ventrolateral prosencephalon, which is divided into several anatomically and functionally distinct areas: the anterior olfactory nucleus, piriform ...

Endogenous opioids in the olfactory tubercle and their roles in olfaction and quality of life [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Neural Circuits
Olfactory dysfunctions decrease daily quality of life (QOL) in part by reducing the pleasure of eating. Olfaction plays an essential role in flavor sensation and palatability.

Parallel odor processing by two anatomically distinct olfactory bulb target structures. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The olfactory cortex encompasses several anatomically distinct regions each hypothesized to provide differential representation and processing of specific odors. Studies exploring whether or not the diversity of olfactory bulb input to olfactory cortices

Connectivity of the olfactory tubercle: inputs, outputs, and their plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesFront Neural Circuits
The olfactory tubercle (OT) is a unique part of the olfactory cortex of the mammal brain in that it is also a component of the ventral striatum. It is crucially involved in motivational behaviors, particularly in adaptive olfactory learning.

Projections from the posterolateral olfactory amygdala to the ventral striatum: neural basis for reinforcing properties of chemical stimuli

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Vertebrates sense chemical stimuli through the olfactory receptor neurons whose axons project to the main olfactory bulb. The main projections of the olfactory bulb are directed to the olfactory cortex and olfactory amygdala (the anterior and ...

Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 5 Provides Olfactory Input Into Limbic Brain Areas and Modulates Emotional Behaviors and Serotonin Transmission

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Trace amine-associated receptors (TAARs) are a class of G-protein-coupled receptors found in mammals. While TAAR1 is expressed in several brain regions, all the other TAARs have been described mainly in the olfactory epithelium and the glomerular layer ...
