One of the main features of the mammalian olfactory system is the singular expression of the receptors responsible for detection of odorous stimuli, known as ORs: each olfactory sensory neuron expresses only one out of a thousand OR receptor gene candidates. The molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain one of the great mysteries of the nervous system. Recent publications sugges…
The mammalian olfactory sensory system is composed of many subsystems in the nasal cavity. The main olfactory system detects general odors and the accessory or vomeronasal system detects pheromones that lead to instinctive behavioral responses, like reproductive, aggressive, fear and suckling behaviors. Through these olfactory subsystems, mammals are able to identify the presence and qual…
