Activity-Dependent Plasticity in an Olfactory Circuit
Olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) form synapses with local interneurons and second-order projection neurons to form stereotyped olfactory glomeruli. This primary olfactory circuit is hard-wired through the action of genetic cues. We asked whether individual glomeruli have the capacity for stimulus-evoked plasticity by focusing on the carbon dioxide (CO2) circuit in Drosophila. Specialized OSNs d...
متن کاملActivity-dependent plasticity in the olfactory intrabulbar map.
In mammals, each olfactory bulb contains two mirror-symmetric glomerular maps. Isofunctional glomeruli within each bulb are specifically linked through a set of reciprocal intrabulbar projections (IBPs) to form an intrabulbar map. We injected neural tracers into the glomerular layer on one side of the bulb and examined the resulting projection on the opposite side. In adult mice, the size of th...
متن کاملRapid and continuous activity-dependent plasticity of olfactory sensory input.
Incorporation of new neurons enables plasticity and repair of circuits in the adult brain. Adult neurogenesis is a key feature of the mammalian olfactory system, with new olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) wiring into highly organized olfactory bulb (OB) circuits throughout life. However, neither when new postnatally generated OSNs first form synapses nor whether OSNs retain the capacity for syna...
متن کاملActivity-dependent structural plasticity.
Plasticity in the brain reaches far beyond a mere changing of synaptic strengths. Recent time-lapse imaging in the living brain reveals ongoing structural plasticity by forming or breaking of synapses, motile spines, and re-routing of axonal branches in the developing and adult brain. Some forms of structural plasticity do not follow Hebbian- or anti-Hebbian paradigms of plasticity but rather a...
متن کاملLearning-dependent structural plasticity in the adult olfactory pathway.
Olfactory learning in humans leads to enhanced perceptual discrimination of odor cues. Examining mouse models of both aversive and appetitive conditioning, we demonstrate a mechanism which may underlie this adult learning phenomenon. Topographically unique spatial wiring of the olfactory system allowed us to demonstrate that emotional learning of odor cues alters the primary sensory representat...
