Postnatal odorant exposure induces peripheral olfactory plasticity at the cellular level
2014
Mammalian olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) form the primary elements of the olfactory system. Inserted in the olfactory mucosa lining of the nasal cavity, they are exposed to the environment and their lifespan is brief. Several reports say that OSNs are regularly regenerated during the entire life and that odorant environment affects the olfactory epithelium. However, little is known about the impact of the odorant environment on OSNs at the cellular level and more precisely in the context of early postnatal olfactory exposure. Here we exposed MOR23-green fluorescent protein (GFP) and M71-GFP mice to lyral or acetophenone, ligands for MOR23 or M71, respectively. Daily postnatal exposure to …
Differences in inner ear asymmetry levels between slow-moving and fast-moving primates
2021
International audience; The vestibular system of the inner ear, highly involved in maintaining balance during activities and positional behaviour of animals, has been deeply studied in order to link its morphology with the specific type of locomotion. Previous studies (e.g. Perier et al. 2016, Gonzales et al. 2018) have shown that, in primates, the amount of morphological variation is higher in slow-moving species than in fast-moving ones. These results indicate a lower selective pressure and a reduced functional demand for postural adjustments in the former group, and a higher selective pressure for balance and postural capabilities in the latter. In this study, we assessed if the differen…
