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, ...

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.

The third could be due to electrical stimulation, as stimulating the olfactory bulb in animal models has shown promise in reducing beta-amyloid plaque (associated with Alzheimer’s) and improving ...

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 ...

Their technique involves activating receptors in the olfactory bulb, the part of the brain that processes smell. "It turns out that smell has its own spectrum [like the visible light spectrum ...

"We will look for changes in the size of the olfactory bulb - an area above the nose where the smell nerves join together and connect to the brain. "We will also look at activity in areas of the ...
