A Multireceptor Genetic Approach Uncovers an Ordered Integration of VNO Sensory Inputs in the Accessory Olfactory Bulb
Pheromone detection by the vomeronasal organ (VNO) is thought to rely on activation of specific receptors from the V1R and V2R gene families, but the central representation of pheromone receptor activation remains poorly understood. We generated transgenic mouse lines in which projections from multiple populations of VNO neurons, each expressing a distinct V1R, are differentially labeled with f...
متن کاملNoradrenergic plasticity of olfactory sensory neuron inputs to the main olfactory bulb.
Sensory responses are modulated by internal factors including attention, experience, and brain state. This is partly due to fluctuations in neuromodulatory input from regions such as the noradrenergic locus ceruleus (LC) in the brainstem. LC activity changes with arousal and modulates sensory processing, cognition, and memory. The main olfactory bulb (MOB) is richly targeted by LC fibers and no...
متن کاملFunctional recovery of odor representations in regenerated sensory inputs to the olfactory bulb
The olfactory system has a unique capacity for recovery from peripheral damage. After injury to the olfactory epithelium (OE), olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) regenerate and re-converge on target glomeruli of the olfactory bulb (OB). Thus far, this process has been described anatomically for only a few defined populations of OSNs. Here we characterize this regeneration at a functional level by...
متن کاملLack of Pattern Separation in Sensory Inputs to the Olfactory Bulb during Perceptual Learning
Recent studies revealed changes in odor representations in the olfactory bulb during active olfactory learning (Chu et al., 2016; Yamada et al., 2017). Specifically, mitral cell ensemble responses to very similar odorant mixtures sparsened and became more distinguishable as mice learned to discriminate the odorants over days (Chu et al., 2016). In this study, we explored whether changes in the ...
متن کاملCholinergic modulation of neuronal excitability in the accessory olfactory bulb.
The accessory olfactory bulb (AOB), the first relay of chemosensory information in the Vomeronasal system, receives extensive cholinergic innervation from the basal forebrain. Cholinergic modulation of neuronal activity in the olfactory bulb has been hypothesized to play an important role in olfactory processing; however, little is known about the cellular actions of acetylcholine (ACh) within ...
