Retronasal odor concentration coding in glomeruli of the rat olfactory bulb
The mammalian olfactory system processes odorants presented orthonasally (inhalation through the nose) and also retronasally (exhalation), enabling identification of both external as well as internal objects during food consumption. There are distinct differences between ortho- and retronasal air flow patterns, psychophysics, multimodal integration, and glomerular responses. Recent work indicat...
متن کاملRetronasal odor representations in the dorsal olfactory bulb of rats.
Animals perceive their olfactory environment not only from odors originating in the external world (orthonasal route) but also from odors released in the oral cavity while eating food (retronasal route). Retronasal olfaction is crucial for the perception of food flavor in humans. However, little is known about the retronasal stimulus coding in the brain. The most basic questions are if and how ...
متن کاملOdor Concentration Coding in the Olfactory Bulb Glomerulus: The Interval Coding Hypothesis
The interval coding hypothesis suggests that the processing that occurs, due to odor exposure, inside an olfactory bulb glomerulus work to create an interval code over the concentration range, so that different principal cells respond the strongest to different parts of that range. The goal of this project was to investigate the interval coding hypothesis with respect to function and biological...
متن کاملThe olfactory bulb: coding and processing of odor molecule information.
Olfactory sensory neurons detect a large variety of odor molecules and send information through their axons to the olfactory bulb, the first site for the processing of olfactory information in the brain. The axonal connection is precisely organized so that signals from 1000 different types of odorant receptors are sorted out in 1800 glomeruli in the mouse olfactory bulb. Individual glomerular m...
