Prosaposin/Saposin Expression in the Developing Rat Olfactory and Vomeronasal Epithelia

Journal of Developmental Biology
Prosaposin is a glycoprotein widely conserved in vertebrates, and it acts as a precursor for saposins that accelerate hydrolysis in lysosomes or acts as a neurotrophic factor without being processed into saposins.

[The vomeronasal organ--a rediscovered sensory organ].

Tidsskrift for den Norske laegeforening : tidsskrift for praktisk medicin, ny raekke, 1996
The authors review the function and anatomy of the vomeronasal organ (organ of Jacobson), a chemosensory organ situated in the nose. In mammals, stimulation of the vomeronasal organ induces sexual behaviour and changes the hormonal status of males and females.

Effect of Blockage of the Ducts of the Vomeronasal Organ on LH Plasma Levels during the “Whitten Effect” in Does

Veterinary Medicine International, 2011
Eighteen mature, nonpregnant, and indigenous South African does were randomly divided into two groups to test if their vomeronasal organs exert an influence on LH plasma levels during a Whitten effect experimental trial.

Il sistema olfattivo accessorio del topo: effetti della delezione del gene codificante per la subunità Gγ8. [PDF]

, 2013
I sistemi chemosensoriali deputati al riconoscimento di molecole esogene si sono evoluti anticamente, e rivestono probabilmente un ruolo fondamentale nell'evoluzione e nella diffusione delle specie nel regno animale.
