Fate and Development of Human Vomeronasal Organ – A Microscopic Fetal Study [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016 Introduction: The existence of Vomeronasal organ in human is a controversial subject. Presence of Vomeronasal organ and its structure was not reported in standard text books. The presence of Vomeronasal organ in fetal life is doubtful.

The vomeronasal organ and incisive duct of harbor seals are modified to secrete acidic mucus into the nasal cavity [PDF]
Scientific ReportsMost terrestrial mammals have a vomeronasal system to detect specific chemicals. The peripheral organ of this system is a vomeronasal organ (VNO) opening to the incisive duct, and its primary integrative center is an accessory olfactory bulb (AOB).

Sensory Detection by the Vomeronasal Organ Modulates Experience-Dependent Social Behaviors in Female Mice [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 In mice, social behaviors are largely controlled by the olfactory system. Pheromone detection induces naïve virgin females to retrieve isolated pups to the nest and to be sexually receptive to males, but social experience increases the performance of ...

Morphological characterization of the nasopalatine region in human fetuses and its association to pathologies [PDF]
Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2013 The nasopalatine region is composed of structures such as the vomeronasal organ and nasopalatine duct. The nasopalatine duct may provide the communication of the mouth to the nasal cavity in human fetuses and can be obliterated in an adult human ...

The role of the vomeronasal system in food preferences of the gray short-tailed opossum,
Nutrition & Metabolism, 2005 Although feeding deficits have been reported in snakes and lizards following vomeronasal system disruption, no deficit has been previously reported in a mammal.

Pronounced strain-specific chemosensory receptor gene expression in the mouse vomeronasal organ [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background The chemosensory system plays an important role in orchestrating sexual behaviors in mammals. Pheromones trigger sexually dimorphic behaviors and different mouse strains exhibit differential responses to pheromone stimuli.
