Robust Odor Coding via Inhalation-Coupled Transient Activity in the Mammalian Olfactory Bulb
It has been proposed that a single sniff generates a "snapshot" of the olfactory world. However, odor coding on this timescale is poorly understood, and it is not known whether coding is invariant to changes in respiration frequency. We investigated this by recording spike trains from the olfactory bulb in awake, behaving rats. During rapid sniffing, odor inhalation triggered rapid and reliable...
متن کاملWhy sniff fast? The relationship between sniff frequency, odor discrimination, and receptor neuron activation in the rat.
Many mammals display brief bouts of high-frequency (4-10 Hz) sniffing when sampling odors. Given this, high-frequency sniffing is thought to play an important role in odor information processing. Here, we asked what role rapid sampling behavior plays in odor coding and odor discrimination by monitoring sniffing during performance of discrimination tasks under different paradigms and across diff...
متن کاملThe sniff as a unit of olfactory processing.
Sniffing is a rhythmic motor process essential for the acquisition of olfactory information. Recent behavioral experiments show that using a single sniff rats can accurately discriminate between very similar odors and fail to improve their accuracy by taking multiple sniffs. This implies that each sniff has the potential to provide a complete snapshot of the local olfactory environment. The dis...
متن کاملTesting the sorption hypothesis in olfaction: a limited role for sniff strength in shaping primary odor representations during behavior.
The acquisition of sensory information during behavior shapes the neural representation, central processing, and perception of external stimuli. In mammals, a sniff represents the basic unit of odor sampling, yet how sniffing shapes odor representations remains poorly understood. Perhaps the earliest hypothesis of the role of sniffing in olfaction arises from the fact that odorants with differe...
متن کاملOdor Representations in Olfactory Cortex: Distributed Rate Coding and Decorrelated Population Activity
VIDEO ABSTRACT How information encoded in neuronal spike trains is used to guide sensory decisions is a fundamental question. In olfaction, a single sniff is sufficient for fine odor discrimination but the neural representations on which olfactory decisions are based are unclear. Here, we recorded neural ensemble activity in the anterior piriform cortex (aPC) of rats performing an odor mixture ...
