The presence of some mature features in some of these cells suggests the possibility of a progressively integration as excitatory neurons, as described in the olfactory cortex of ... associated ...

The olfactory system is the sensory system that is responsible for the sense of smell (olfaction). It receives, processes and interprets odour information. Interactions among insects, plants ...

Around one in 700 babies worldwide are born with a cleft lip or palate. However, many parents and carers have little idea of how clefts affect children’s ability to make speech sounds and learn ...

Among all sensory biomarkers, olfaction is currently one of the most promising indicators for AD. Olfactory dysfunction signifies a decline in the ability to detect, identify, or remember odors.

Odours are first captured by special olfactory nerve cells inside your nose. These cells extend upwards from the roof of your nose towards the smell-processing centre of your brain, called the ...

These findings challenge a long-standing dogma in the field and suggest that different types of receptors, that is, olfactory and ionotropic receptors, can be co-expressed in the same chemosensory ...

The Drosophila antennal lobe houses synapses between olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) and downstream projection neurons (PNs) in stereotyped glomeruli. Many glomeruli exhibit structural plasticity in ...
