Signaling mechanisms and behavioral function of the mouse basal vomeronasal neuroepithelium
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2014 The vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a sensory organ that is found in most terrestrial vertebrates and that is principally implicated in the detection of pheromones.

Patch-Clamp Analysis of Voltage-Activated and Chemically Activated Currents in the Vomeronasal Organ Of Sternotherus Odoratus (Stinkpot/Musk Turtle) [PDF]
, 2001 The electrophysiological basis of chemical communication in the specialized olfactory division of the vomeronasal (VN) organ is poorly understood. In total, 198 patch-clamp recordings were made from 42 animals (Sternotherus odoratus, the stinkpot/musk ...

Olfactory systems and neural circuits that modulate predator odor fear [PDF]
, 2014 When prey animals detect the odor of a predator a constellation of fear-related autonomic, endocrine, and behavioral responses rapidly occur to facilitate survival.

Dual processing of sulfated steroids in the olfactory system of an anuran amphibian [PDF]
, 2015 Chemical communication is widespread in amphibians, but if compared to later diverging tetrapods the available functional data is limited. The existing information on the vomeronasal system of anurans is particularly sparse.

Postnatal Development of the Rat Vomeronasal Organ [PDF]
Chemical Senses, 2005 The vomeronasal organ (VNO), also know as Jacobson’s organ, is a paired chemosensory organ mediating the perception of chemical stimuli related to social and/or reproductive behavior (for review, see Farbman, 1992). In rodents, it is an elongated tube, with a crescentshaped sensory epithelium (SE) consisting of basal cells, bipolar neurons and ...

Coadaptation of the chemosensory system with voluntary exercise behavior in mice.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Ethologically relevant chemical senses and behavioral habits are likely to coadapt in response to selection. As olfaction is involved in intrinsically motivated behaviors in mice, we hypothesized that selective breeding for a voluntary behavior would ...

Pitfalls in Cytodiagnosis of Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Nasal Septum - A Rare Case Report [PDF]
, 2010 Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign mixed tumor of major salivary gland. Ectopic occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma are seen in minor salivary glands of pharynx, trachea, larynx and very rarely in nasal septum.

, 2010 Assortative mating, a potentially efficient prezygotic reproductive barrier, may prevent loss of genetic potential by avoiding the production of unfit hybrids (i.e., because of hybrid infertility or hybrid breakdown) that occur at regions of secondary ...
