Sniffing Out NMDA Receptors in the Olfactory Cortex
Selective olfactory learning is essential for survival in most newborn mammals. Findings by Franks and Isaacson in this issue of Neuron suggest that early olfactory learning might be selective, in part because olfactory experience downregulates NMDA receptors at primary inputs to the olfactory cortex.
متن کاملSniffing Out the Right Address
Olfactory systems in organisms ranging from invertebrates to mammals distinguish between odors using an array of olfactory neurons that express different olfactory receptors—usually just one receptor in a given neuron. Since an organism’s genome can encode hundreds of olfactory receptors, researchers have struggled to understand how a single olfactory neuron decides which receptor to express. I...
متن کاملSniffing out early reaction intermediates.
P owerful tools for identifying reaction intermediates and byproducts of chemical reactions are crucial for the development of high-yield chemical syntheses, not only for testing theoretical mechanistic models and calculations, but also to obtain improved understanding of reaction mechanisms during trial experiments. This will enable more efficient steering toward optimum yields for a variety o...
متن کاملSniffing and Oxytocin: Effects on Olfactory Memories
In this issue of Neuron, Oettl et al. (2016) show how oxytocin can boost processing of olfactory information in female rats by a top-downregulation from the anterior olfactory nucleus onto the main olfactory bulb. As a result, interactions with juvenile conspecifics receive more attention and are longer memorized.
متن کاملMirror Sniffing: Humans Mimic Olfactory Sampling Behavior
Ample evidence suggests that social chemosignaling plays a significant role in human behavior. Processing of odors and chemosignals depends on sniffing. Given this, we hypothesized that humans may have evolved an automatic mechanism driving sniffs in response to conspecific sniffing. To test this, we measured sniffing behavior of human subjects watching the movie Perfume, which contains many ol...
