The primary olfactory (or piriform) cortex is a promising model system for understanding how the cerebral cortex processes sensory information, although an investigation of the piriform cortex is hindered by a lack of detailed information about the ...

Corticofugal projections from the anterior olfactory nucleus target olfactory bulb principal cells [PDF]
The anterior olfactory nucleus (AON) is a cortical structure reciprocally connected with the olfactory bulb (OB) and the piriform cortex. Here, using small extracellular and intracellular injections to trace the terminal projections in the OB from ...

Neural connectivity predicts spreading of alpha-synuclein pathology in fibril-injected mouse models: Involvement of retrograde and anterograde axonal propagation. [PDF]
In Parkinson's disease, some of the first alpha-synuclein aggregates appear in the olfactory system and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve before spreading to connected brain regions.

Interdisciplinary approaches to enhance sensory properties and consumer acceptance in pulse crops
Enhancing the flavor profile of pulse crops such as chickpea, dry pea, and lentil is essential for increasing human acceptance of plant‐based diets. Despite their nutritional value, undesirable sensory attributes of pulses, including off‐flavors and bitterness, reduce consumer acceptance.

Single‐Neuron Responses to Odor‐Related Words in the Human Amygdala
Based on human single‐neuron recordings, we investigated whether and how the odor aspect of words is processed in mediotemporal lobe regions involved in olfactory perception. We detected converging evidence for odor‐associated responses to words in the amygdala, indicated by increased ensemble activity, and a significant proportion of odor‐associated ...

Effects of Odor on Emotion, with Implications
The sense of smell is found widely in the animal kingdom. Human and animal studies show that odor perception is modulated by experience and/or physiological state (such as hunger), and that some odors can arouse emotion, and can lead to the recall of ...

International Veterinary Epilepsy Task Force recommendations for systematic sampling and processing of brains from epileptic dogs and cats [PDF]
Traditionally, histological investigations of the epileptic brain are required to identify epileptogenic brain lesions, to evaluate the impact of seizure activity, to search for mechanisms of drug-resistance and to look for comorbidities.
