DOI: 10.1007/s00429-017-1485-0
Abstract: The accessory olfactory system controls social and sexual behaviours in mice, both of which are critical for their survival. Vomeronasal sensory neuron (VSN) axons form synapses with mitral cell dendrites in glomeruli of the accessory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2019.134320
Abstract: Female Periplaneta americana cockroaches emit two cooperatively working pheromone components, periplanone-B (PB) as a long-range attractant and periplanone-A (PA) as a short-range arrestant, and males develop enlarged glomeruli for processing them separately in the first-order… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.05.11.491539
Abstract: In olfactory systems, convergence of sensory neurons onto glomeruli generates a map of odorant receptor identity. How glomerular maps relate to sensory space remains unclear. We sought to better characterize this relationship in the mouse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.368.6497.1324-l
Abstract: Neuroscience The mechanisms by which sensory percepts are encoded in neural ensembles are still incompletely understood. Chong et al. used single-spot optogenetic stimulation to control neuronal activity in mouse olfactory glomeruli in space and time.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.831253
Abstract: We previously showed that the rupture of Bowman’s capsule (BC) promotes the progression of crescentic glomerulonephritis by enhancing the entry of CD8+ T cells into the glomeruli. In the present study, we utilized digital spatial… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2023.974197
Abstract: Recent studies using a novel method for targeted ablation of afferent renal nerves have demonstrated their importance in the development and maintenance of some animal models of hypertension. However, relatively little is known about the… read more here.
