DOI: 10.1002/cne.24887
Abstract: Individual receptor neurons in the peripheral olfactory organ extend long axons into the olfactory bulb forming synapses with projection neurons in spherical neuropil regions, called glomeruli. Generally, odor map formation and odor processing in all… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10886-020-01160-y
Abstract: Antennal olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) for pheromone-related and plant volatile compounds were identified and characterized in the lucerne weevil, Sitona discoideus (Gyllenhal), using the single sensillum recording technique. Our study using five pheromone-related compounds and… read more here.

A probabilistic approach to demixing odors
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Nature Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.1038/nn.4444
Abstract: The olfactory system faces a hard problem: on the basis of noisy information from olfactory receptor neurons (the neurons that transduce chemicals to neural activity), it must figure out which odors are present in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.04.11.487908
Abstract: Odorants binding to olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) trigger bursts of action potentials, providing the brain with its only experience of the olfactory environment. Our recordings made in vivo from locust ORNs showed odor-elicited firing patterns… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.855522
Abstract: Although vomiting is commonly recognized as a protective reaction in response to toxic stimuli, the elaborate sensory processes and necessary molecular components are not fully clear, which is due to a lack of appropriate experimental… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.34958
Abstract: Natural environments feature mixtures of odorants of diverse quantities, qualities and complexities. Olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) are the first layer in the sensory pathway and transmit the olfactory signal to higher regions of the brain.… read more here.
