Anatomical contributions to odorant sampling and representation in rodents: zoning in on sniffing behavior.
Odorant sampling behaviors such as sniffing bring odorant molecules into contact with olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) to initiate the sensory mechanisms of olfaction. In rodents, inspiratory airflow through the nose is structured and laminar; consequently, the spatial distribution of adsorbed odorant molecules during inspiration is predictable. Physicochemical properties such as water solubil...
متن کاملAnatomical and functional development of the pre-Bötzinger complex in prenatal rodents.
Developmental anomalies of central respiratory neural control contribute to newborn mortality and morbidity. Elucidation of the cellular, molecular, trophic, and genetic mechanisms involved in the formation and function of respiratory nuclei during prenatal development will provide a foundation for understanding pathologies. The pre-Bötzinger Complex (pre-BötC) is a specific group of neurons lo...
متن کاملWhy Can’t Rodents Vomit? A Comparative Behavioral, Anatomical, and Physiological Study
The vomiting (emetic) reflex is documented in numerous mammalian species, including primates and carnivores, yet laboratory rats and mice appear to lack this response. It is unclear whether these rodents do not vomit because of anatomical constraints (e.g., a relatively long abdominal esophagus) or lack of key neural circuits. Moreover, it is unknown whether laboratory rodents are representativ...
متن کاملRodents
Future studies, however, will make progress by running across study sites and geographic regions to test functional hypotheses of baboon social evolution. As a case in point, one of the most prominent behavioural differences between baboon allotaxa lies in the occurrence of coalitionary behaviour among unrelated, reproductively competing males: this is a problem of real substance, because this ...
متن کاملHantavirus in Thai Rodents
A serological survey has been carried out to detect evidence of hantavirus infection in rodents from two provinces of Thailand. This study aimed to examine virus antibody in 354 rodents trapped among 6 different villages of Nakhon Pathom Province (February-March, 1998) and in 326 rodents trapped among 14 villages of Nakhon Ratchasima Province (August-October, 1998). Seroprevalence among rodents...
