The olfactory bulb is the part of the central nervous system that receives olfactory information from the olfactory receptor neurons and relays the information to subcortical and cortical areas of ...

This important study partially fills the gap in the knowledge of olfaction at the level of the Anterior Olfactory Nucleus (AON) and Piriform Cortex with functional magnetic resonance imaging, ...

The journey of smell begins when odor molecules activate sensory neurons in the nose's olfactory bulb. These neurons send ...

Throughout the postnatal life of rodents, neural progenitor cells migrate from the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the forebrain through the rostral migratory system (RMS) to the olfactory bulb.

A study published in JAMA Network Open confirmed that microplastics can be present in the olfactory bulbs of the brain in people, based on their analysis of 15 deceased people. While more research ...

"Our original hypothesis was that we may find some bacteria in the part of the brain called the olfactory bulb, which is the one part of the brain connected to the nose," Salinas said. "However ...

One early and significant indicator of Alzheimer's disease, which is the most prevalent form of dementia globally, is anosmia ...

Some of the virus reaches and infects the olfactory bulb, the center in the brain connected to the sense of smell, by flowing up from the mouth to the nose. The research team determined that if ...

The stimulants used are odorless, so instead of triggering the olfactory bulb in the nose, they target the trigeminal nerve, which also innervates the lining of the nose and causes more systemic ...
